It has been studied that the occupation of these territories dates back to the Iron Age 500 years ago and even much earlier up to the 5th century in the case of this particular site of Las Merchanas. In the golden age of these territories, these settlements were mainly populated by shepherds and warriors who, according to various Roman writers, were known as "vetones".
