Through a combination of new archaeological interventions and a review of data from early 20th-century excavations, the authors reconstruct the history of one of the most important cetariae (fish salting factories) in the Gulf of Cádiz in antiquity. The book reveals the industrial reality of the enclave, moving away from interpretations that linked it to the mythical city of Tartessos, and provides a renewed and detailed view of its functionality and historical relevance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe research focuses on a comprehensive analysis of the \"El Cerro del Trigo\" site, a key location for understanding the fishing and salting industry in Roman Hispania. The authors integrate the results of surface and geophysical surveys, manual soundings, and cleaning of specific areas, along with geomorphological analyses. This multidisciplinary approach allows for a deep understanding of the structure and operation of the cetaria, dismantling previous theories that associated it with the legendary Tartessos. The book demonstrates that the enclave was, in reality, a first-rate production center in the Gulf of Cádiz, offering a well-founded reinterpretation of its past.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Topics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eArchaeology of production and the fish salting industry in antiquity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCritical review of archaeological historiography on Tartessos and the Lower Guadalquivir.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eArchaeological methodology: integration of geophysical prospecting, soundings, and geomorphological analysis.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eEconomic and social history of the Huelva coastline during the Roman period.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eStudy of cetariae as processing factories for marine resources.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at archaeologists, historians, undergraduate and graduate students in Archaeology and Ancient History, as well as researchers specializing in the Roman fishing industry and the protohistory of the southwestern Iberian Peninsula.
