THE SILVER QUEEN | Mystery of a forgotten Bronze Age culture in Spain

This is about a discovery in the Bronze Age ruins of La Almoloya, in south eastern Spain, in what is now modern day Murcia.

La Almoloya is an important hill top complex, one of many sites built by the barely known El Agar culture and occupied between approximately 2,200 and 1,500 years BC.

Beneath the floor of a large hall archaeologists discovered the high status grave of a man and woman, buried together in a large ceramic jar. What makes this discovery so important is that the vast majority of all the lavish grave goods were buried with the woman, not the man, with the clear implication that it was the woman who was the more important individual in this society.
