Espacios y usos de un conjunto aristocrático rural de época visigoda

El yacimiento de Los Hitos (Arisgotas)

Abstract

Los Hitos (Arisgotas-Orgaz, Toledo) is an exceptional archaeological site located to the south-east of the ancient Visigothic capital of Toledo in central Spain. The archaeological excavations have identified a rural settlement whose morphology and construction units suggest an occupation and usage linked to the late antique elites. This contribution presents and analyses the functionality of the different recovered spaces and proposes an interpretation of the complex in the light of the latest findings reached thanks to an interdisciplinary archaeological methodology.
