The Celtiberian culture, a fascinating blend of Celtic and Iberian influences, left behind numerous remnants that offer us glimpses into their ancient world. One such site is the Celtiberian site of San Miguel, dating back to the Iron Age II. Here, we can witness the architectural prowess of these people through the remains of their rock-digged houses in the Roman rock city of Tiermes. Moving forward in time, we encounter Uxama Argelae, a Roman Celtiberian city from the 4th to 3rd century b. C. , whose ruins still stand as a testament to their advanced civilization. In Teruel's La Caridad (Caminreal), an exquisite Celtiberian Oinochoe showcases their artistic finesse and craftsmanship. Traveling further across Spain, we stumble upon Contrevia Leukade in La Rioja - an Early Iron Age settlement that reveals insights into daily life during this period. The famous Numancia also beckons with its Roman ruins near Soria; this ancient Celtiberian settlement has become synonymous with resilience and defiance against invaders. Delving deeper into their cultural practices, we uncover megalithic monuments like Verracos - pre-Romanic Celtic sculptures that exude mystery and intrigue. Additionally, Celtic art manifests itself through artifacts such as iron daggers found throughout Spain. Perched atop Santa Tecla Hill Fort (Santa Tegra), one can marvel at panoramic views while contemplating how these Celts once thrived within its protective walls. Returning to Tiermes' rock city yet again unveils more details about their unique dwellings carved out from solid stone. Intrinsically linked with Spanish history and heritage are these remnants left by the enigmatic Celtiberians – a civilization that continues to captivate our imagination even today.
