A few months ago, the excavations in Ronda de las Murallas brought to light a Horreum And three Roman tombs. Recently, in a section adjacent to this, they have discovered something surprising: remains belonging to a salting factory dating from the fifth and sixth centuries AD
The situation is very close to the epicenter of the Roman city, which denotes an important industrial fabric in the surroundings of the city aimed at exploiting the resources of the sea.
This new discovery shows that the presence of salted and derived products in our diet has a new historical reference: this salting factory that was part of the economic fabric of Dianium makes almost 1.500 years.
