The Iberian necropolis of Cabezo del Tío Pío lies within the municipal boundary of Archena, settled since Iberian times. It gave rise to a type of pottery known as the Elche-Archena style, and among the pieces found is a notable Iberian oenochoe now kept in the Museo Arqueológico Nacional in Madrid.
