It´s old ( published briefly in 2007), but seems it has been never commented here. I`ll give more details soon, from this magazine (I was looking for medieval sites results, not roman...so I just took few notes on this :roll: ).
Search:
"santa agueda" delika
in Google Earth, and set the 3D on. A must see. 
There have been a few finds, but enough to be sure:
A clear perimeter, one pilum, one hasta, one omega fibula, and one torque fragment.
Another broken torque find is used by those who defend than the nearby camp (about 10Km. in straight line) of Andagoste was atacked by "indigenous" peoples. :twisted:
As a curiosity, some buttons and a bullet were also found from another camp, this time French, of the 54ème Regiment de Infanterie de Ligne, from the 5th to the 7 th of November 1808.

sheep´s bladders may be employed to prevent earthquakes.

The first link seems to be to a membership article.

It's a library search engine (La Rioja University's), but gives all the relevant data (names, ISBN, and so). If the article it's avalaible freely on the net, it has a link (which it's not the case). I a couple of days I'll add more info.

cool, thanks, I'll wait for it, as the article isn't available freely. It's available only to La Rioja University members or other associated universities of Spain, but not all of them.

It's published in Arkeoikuska, a yearly "magazine" (almost 4 cm thick) avalaible in most university and public libraries of Basque Country.
I must warn that it doesn't tell much more, as the whole magazine are shortened reports from all the archeological activities of the basque Country...

The Dialnet link seems to require a membership login.
Is it the same Santa Agueda as this (Minorca)?

Nope to both. The login is to set the alerts, so as soon as some writer or keyword is in a newly added, you get an e-mail. And there is no electronic version of the magazine (and it's a shame  )
Saint Aguedas (or Agathas) are plenty in the world, but Delikas not so much. And Minorca it's not part of the rainy Basque Country (nevertheless, England or Germany may had claims :mrgreen: )

Apologies -- my poor command of Spanish let me down! :oops: It seems that, if you click on Register (in the top menu bar), and fill in the (free) registration form (in Spanish), you can then get alerts to newly published articles. But, as Iagoba said (and I misunderstood), Dialnet only gives bibliographic information -- no journal content (other than possibly links to online material).
So we rely on you to give us updates, Iagoba!

:lol: Cool thanks...I was leaning towards that, but you know me, not being a real roman, it would only have been speculation!
Thanks!
Going back to the other thread, there seemed to havebeen a small number of Romans involved.
Perhaps due to the turmoil in Italy at the time.....?

As promised, the few things I didn´t took notes when I firstly wrote this :oops: It's not much more, but even this, it's interesting:
9.1 hectares, two gates, the one facing South well conservated.
Now I'm wondering what's the relative size of this camp compared with others... :?:

Camp C at Alesia, on the Montagne de Bussy overlooking Mont Auxois, is 8 ha and, by coincidence, also has only two gates -- probably on account of its situation, attached to the outer line of siege-works. (I've just been writing about Caesar at Alesia, so it's fresh in my mind.)
