Las Gorgollitas is a village belonging to the municipality of Santiago-Pontones, in the province of Jaén (Andalusia). Composed of several nuclei, the most notable is that of the Cortijo del Carrascal.

The village is located on the eastern slope of the Loma del Calar, northwest of the Segura river and the Anchuricas reservoir. It is located 34.5 km from Santiago de la Espada by road.

In the natural environment of the village, abundant in water, there is no shortage of springs and streams, surrounding the village with thick trees, where walnut trees, orchards and pines abound. From the village you can see the Calar del Cobo and the Puntal de la Misa, as well as the valley of the Segura river, forming a beautiful panoramic view.

The village, as of January 1, 2017, had 17 inhabitants. However, at the beginning of the 20th century, the journalist and lawyer Luis Bello pointed out in his book Journey through the schools of Spain (1929) more than two hundred inhabitants in Las Gorgollitas.
