Sobre un hipogeo fenício descubierto en Almuñecar (Granada) en el siglo XVII

Abstract

We examine the available information on a hypogeum where a Phoenician aristocrat was buried which was discovered by chance in the Granada town of Almuñécar during the year 1604. We consider the data provided by some preserved documents from that century about its constructive characteristics, as well as the different elements that made up the grave goods and the ritual that was used. At the same time we will try to insert this finding within our current knowledge about this colony and in particular within some other burial chambers documented in this site.
