Ulaca 2: Cabega de Navasangil - a photo on Flickriver

The overt archaeological elements of this site emerged as the Romans started to leave the Iberian peninsula, and there is a chance that, with this hilltop's views over to the distant Ulaca site, this vivid mineral 'sculpture park' of wind, sun and time, was a clandestine refuge and vantage point for those involved with the defence of the Ulaca Castro from Roman attack. Did some women, children and elders hide under the Navasangil cracks following the principle of the toue? (www.flickr.com/photos/ajmitchell-prehistory/30690580365/i...). Did Ulaca 2 arise at the first opportunity - in memory of a past people, cultural mosaic and valley? Was Navasangil really simply Ulaca 2? More sacred stones and views over a people a valley and a landscape?

As the early periods of the dark ages progressed, a new invasion of Visigoths would arrive into Spain, adding their name to a period of history, even if their infiltration away from urban spaces is a question of degree that is open to debate.
