Image of Villanueva de Teba, not of the place itself.

In the municipal district one of the most studied Iron Age necropolises of La Bureba was excavated, alongside that of Miraveche. It brings together only some thirty-five graves, but a striking proportion contained weaponry: dagger, shield, spearhead and knife.
