This print takes us back in time to the late 19th century, when the necropolis of Punta de la Vaca in Cadiz, Spain was discovered.

The photograph showcases the remarkable archaeological site shortly after its unearthing. It offers a glimpse into the rich history and ancient civilization that once thrived in this region. The tombs and burial remains depicted here provide valuable insights into the lives and customs of those who lived centuries ago.
