Third Excavation Campaign

2006

In connection with the preparation of the site’s Master Plan, Pilar Sáez de Albéniz, Rosa Armendáriz, and Txaro Mateo resumed the work undertaken in the previous decade. The first action consisted of the systematic surveying of each plot of the hill and its immediate surroundings in order to delimit and sectorize the archaeological site.

During 2006, and in collaboration with Caja Navarra, the Aitonak environmental volunteer group proceeded with clearing work at various points of the site. That summer, thanks to a grant from the Eslava Town Council and the Navarrese Employment Service, the third excavation campaign took place.
