Hi all!
Very good news!! Another exciting discovery!!!
an archeological excavation has been started near Medina de las Torres, in Badajoz province. There has been found a whole city, "Contributa Iulia" (over 20 ha surface). By now there has been found a part of the wall, and one of the gates to the city. The excavations are still going on so I will tell you more if I find more info and pics. The reason for this excavation was little discoveries in XIX century.
Do you remember the discovery of the roman theatre in Metellinum? I told you some time ago... new statues have been found in there during the excavations of the theatre. I'll try to look for the pics and post it
