Remains of the oldest population settlements in La Rioja, located on the right bank of the Alhama river.

The pelendones, a Celtiberian people, settled in Contrebia Leukade in the Iron Age and built a fortification, urbanizing the land and building their houses carved into the rock.

Later, during the second half of the 4th century B.C. Different tribes arrived that expanded the town and reinforced it with a deep ditch dug into the rock and a wall that surrounded the entire city.
