During the time that the area was inhabited, the Iberians constructed a large walled area, setting up their own culture which influenced both the urban layout as well as the funeral rites and the various social activities they carried out.
You can discern the layout of the streets adapted to the shape of the mountain, the houses, the cisterns sculpted out of the rock, the temples and the extraordinary wall with square and circular towers. These materials enable the first pre-Iberian settlement to be dated to the end of the 7th century BC and the first Iberian town towards 550 BC.
At the beginning of the 2nd century BC, the place was abandoned. Archaeological remains found in the successive digs carried out on the Iberian town at Ullastret can be seen in Ullastret Archaeological Museum, in the site itself.
In the prices of the routes,the cost of the entrance to the museum, is not included. Museum: Ullastret 2,30€.
