Javea Costa Blanca Spain

Montgo Park views

Next Sunday 29 January you all are invited to participate in a hiking activity aimed to expand our knowledge of ancestral Spanish culture through the Iberian settlements trail of Jávea‘s Montgo Natural Park.

This path is full of remains and historical places where the Iberians settled from the eighth century BC and started a civilization based in the trade with the Greek and Phoenician. In  this path we can appreciate an important Iberian town by Benimaquia highs, where were found Phoenician amphorae related to the processing and trade of wine.

The archaeological findings in the form of pottery, coins and ornaments in the Coll de Pous area and Plana de Justa from 4^th century BC and the Peña del Aguila’s defensive walls, confirm the presence of the Iberians in the area until 1^st century BC, making the place one of the main strategic spots of South East Mediterranean early civilizations.
