Conjunto Arqueológico de Cástulo
Linares (Jaén), Spain

This object is an obvious example where you can see the beginning of the Iberian Ancient Age. The decorative motifs of series of concentric circles in the ceramic vessels were typical of the societies of the Iberian, this motif being practically unknown in the Phoenician settlements of Andalusia.

We observe, therefore, a transformation of the cultural features of the Phoenician colonizing-commercial societies, towards a very particular interpretation of them by the indigenous world, which will give as a direct result the formation of full Iberian society.
