Tot i haver passat gairebé dues dècades des de la seua excavació, ha estat recentment publicat com a nota breu al llibre "La Antigüedad Tardía en las Islas Baleares", publicació coordinada pel Dr. Miguel Ángel Cau Ontiveros. Aquí doncs us oferim una separata d'aquesta interessant publicació. El jaciment ofereix una nova peça d'anàlisi pels segles que han estat denominats tradicionalment com foscos, esperem que aquesta i futures investigacions i troballes ajudin a possar més llum sobre la història de la nostra illa.

The outstanding finds were the remnants of a settlement´s wall and a burial. Both remains seemed to belong to a Late Ancient Age period, but due the limits of excavation were so tiny we couldn´t a more accurated and thorough interpretation of the site.

The most outstanding find over there was a punic water tank re-used as a dumping pit during the Late Roman Empire period. Because of that a lot of Roman-Ebusitanian productions were found, here we try to display a representative sample of them.

Phase 1: Muslim graveyard (10th-13th century AD), overlying the Ancient Age remains.
Phase 2: Roman period (2nd-3rd century AD), as the latest occupational remnants of the building.
Phase 3: Punic period (2nd century BC), as the earliest occupation of the settlement.

This site covered different phases, from the Punic period through the Roman Empire stages to the Byzantium and Dark Ages centuries. This work that you will read shows the Dark Ages phase, one of the most unknown and interesting periods in the island archaeology.

2005 during the accidental discovery in the monitoring of the groundworks
due the Second Ring Road of Ibiza Town (E-20). The burial discovered (the
main topic of this paper) contained an adult male individual. The skeleton
showed evidence of advanced spondyloarthropathy, probably related to diffuse
idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH). Osteological evidence could prove
the individual within a socially «privileged» class of the community and could
be used to theorize about their possible socioeconomic status. The observed
pathology, DISH, is a condition resulting from a diet relatively high in calories,
including fatty proteins and sugars, characteristically associated with the
most elite social groups of a population. In addition, the absence of other common pathologies indicative of metabolic disorders inherited (many times from
a childhood of food and health insecurity) was also relevant in the analysis.

This site was dug by Jonathan Castro Orellana and Joan Roig-Ribas in 2006, and this draft is based on the final report and the research done due a Master in Archaeology at the University of Valencia during 2014. The dating of this settlement is covering the centuries known in the Balearic Islands as Dark Ages, this means between the fail of th Roman Empire (5th century AD) and the Muslim conquest (10th century AD).
