The University of Valencia (UV) and the Prehistoric Research Service (SIP) of the Provincial Council of Valencia are concluding the archaeological work at the Iberian settlement of Pic dels Alls in Iàtova, in the demarcation of Valencia, after ten excavation campaigns. This site, inhabited approximately between 2,900 and 2,000 years ago, is a good of cultural interest and from it come the most important collections of Iberian script texts known, made on lead sheets.

New findings at the archaeological site of Cova de les Teixoneres in Moià. Researchers from the Rovira i Virgili University (URV) and IPHES-CERCA have recovered two complete skeletons of steppe rhinoceros (Stephanorhinus hemitoechus) approximately 200,000 years old. The remains are the only ones of this animal currently documented in the Iberian Peninsula and among the few located in Europe, with only two known cases in Germany and Italy.

At first glance, the Pla d'Almatà is a vast and desolate wasteland. It covers 27 hectares surrounded by the remains of a wall and 27 very deteriorated towers. From the road, only the Sant Crist de Balaguer fortress, a fire station, and a high school are visible. If you wander around, some clues emerge about the past life of the plateau overlooking the town of Balaguer: the remains of four 10th-century houses, when the capital of the Noguera River was Madina Balagí, and there were mosques, baths, markets, houses and streets that followed an orderly and planned layout, and a fortress. Practically everything is buried; only 2% of the site has been excavated, but, apart from hiding remains from the Andalusian past, the plateau, as it has hardly been urbanized, is a veritable source of knowledge. Excavations have been ongoing for forty years, but one of the problems is that it is not even recognizable as a site and is not protected.
