About Yacimiento Arqueológico La Guancha, El Agujero y Bocabarranco

In Gáldar there is a set of 3 archaeological sites that have the names of La Guancha, El Agujero and Bocabarranco.

The La Guancha deposit is a set of 6 aboriginal houses, some tumular constructions and a reciento with a kind of tier that is believed to be the old palace of justice, although It is not entirely clear. This archaeological zone is currently delimited.

Second is The Hole, this set consists of aboriginal houses, with a cruciform tendency, a larger set towards the sea side.

Finally there is the Bocabarranco deposit, in this part there are several houses of the ancient Canarian ones, also they have been discovered structures of great walls, after several studies it has arrived to the conclusion that these constructions date from the seventh century. This site closer to the sea also offers structures still buried near the cliff and some outcrop of walls in it. In the studies that have been carried out, pieces of wood have been found that were used as tools for the construction of the structures.

It is one of the most recognized sites in the archipelago, the most interesting is that there is much more to dig.
