    The deposit has a chronology of more than 4,000 years, having constituted an important metallurgical nucleus that exploited the seams of copper ore from Sierra Morena, mainly azurite and malachite. It has a peculiar architecture of rectangular houses built with slate and arranged on artificial terraces connected by narrow streets.

    Archaeological site dating back more than 4,000 years, located in the municipality of Baños de la Encina, in the province of Jaén. Although the Rumblar river valley is currently partially flooded by the waters of the homonymous dam, its location was strategic on a hill that controlled said valley.
