Iron Age Landscape and Rural Habitat in the Edetan Territory, Iberia (4th–3rd centuries BC)

subject

description

This article focuses on the rural organisation and the settlement pattern of the Iberian Iron Age city of Edeta. Ongoing research into its macro-spatial organisation has revealed the existence of different functions and internal features within the settlements and their relation to a wider and more integrated space: the territory. Based on excavation and survey data, we present new questions and analytical categories in order to approach issues related to territory formation and the emergence of socio-economic complexity in the Iron Age societies of ancient eastern Iberia.
