But that is exactly what surfaced this summer beneath a plot known as La Era, in Sasamón, a town of roughly 1,000 […]

Encuentran en la antigua Segisamo una cocina de hace dos mil años y descubren que los romanos también improvisaban con lo que tenían a mano

Diez años excavando el mismo rincón de Burgos suelen dar para encontrar de todo, pero pocas veces algo tan cotidiano como una cocina.
