The oldest human fossil remains found on the Iberian Peninsula were discovered in sima del Elefante, (in the archaeological site of [https://www.atapuerca.org/es/ver/Video-del-Proyecto-Atapuerca Atapuerca], Burgos) , in the form of a jawbone from an undetermined hominid dating from 1,200,000 years ago. If the fossil were of ''Homo habilis '' origin, it might have arrived on the Iberian Peninsula by way of the Strait of Gibraltar. Another hypothesis is that the fossil could belong to a new species called ''Homo antecessor'', which may have possibly evolved from individuals of ''Homo erectus '' and settled on the Iberian Peninsula (at Gran Dolina, TD6, Atapuerca) after having migrated from Asia around 800,000 years ago, after having migrated from Asia.

It should be mentioned that prior to this finding, around 28 individuals (a relatively large number) were discovered in sima de los Huesos at Atapuerca, making up more than 85% of the world´s recorded fossils of the primitive ''neanderthalensis'' species. These remains were initially thought to be ''Devisovan'', a species that predated ''neanderthalensis''.

|tituloIt was not until 12,000-10,000 BC, that Homo sapiens realised their full artistic potential. Evidence of this resides on the East coast of the Iberian Peninsula where more modest, schematic and stylised paintings than those from the Palaeolithic were developed. As contours of discontinuous lines, the figures lack interior polychromy and are smaller in size. Human beings and animals on which they preyed were the centre piece of the art, often depicted in motion and in scenes that tell a story. These paintings were now displayed in rock shelter rather than caves, undoubtedly reflecting the change to a sedentary lifestyle. Well-preserved examples of such art can be found at the Cogull, Valltorta, and [https://m.facebook.com/watch/?v= Artistic expression 519305595439306&vanity=CMMediaes Alpera] sites as well as in cueva de la Araña.<br>Like the art in the Franco-Cantabrian region, these images were found on parietal walls throughout the Peninsula, frequently comingled with paintings and engravings from later periods. They were concentrated in three large areas: the Galician-Portuguese region, the south, and most commonly, along the East coast, so prevalent in this area that it is often referred to as “Levantine Art”.<br>Characterised by their labyrinth-shaped designs, the petroglyphs in the north and northweast are also worth mentioning, particularly those at Mogor in Marín and the anthropomorphic Ídolo de Peña Tú in Asturias.

Bronze arrived on the Peninsula through the Pyrenees in the Third Millennium BC and was used along with copper to make tools and objects, according to stratigraphic studies of the Bauma del Serrat del Pont site (Girona).<br>Trade increased during the Early Bronze Age and there are strong indications that society was becoming increasingly socially stratified. This was evidenced by the discovery of burial sites for single individuals (mainly in burial pits and megalithic cists) as well as by differences in the quality and quantity of funerary objects placed in these sites. The Argar culture, which succeeded the bell-shaped ceramic, and produced a wide range of ceramic objects, was no longer the only flourishing culture on the Peninsula, according to research carried out in the last 50 years.

With an increase in cultural exchanges, these civilisations mixed with native cultures, eventually evolving into what are known as Pre-Roman cultures. Major changes took place and new traditions arose. In the Northwest, they began to cremate their dead and leave their ashes in urnfields, while in the middle of the Peninsula and in the northern and western regions, highly sophisticated bronze weapons and objects were commercially traded. And lastly, merchants and new cultural groups arose in the Mediterranean and southern regions of the Peninsula, foreshadowing the future colonisation of these areas. Meanwhile, advances in metallurgy led to the development of goldsmithing, as evidenced by the Treasure of Villena (Alicante). Livestock routes stretching inland were also built, as revealed at some excavation sites such as Peña Negra in Crevillent (Alicante). These external influences did not, however, impede indigenous development. Examples of this can be seen from the Cogotas culture, which extended to the Douro and Tagus river basins starting in the 11^th century BC, as well as from the Talayotic culture on the Balearic Islands at the end of the Naviform period.<br>During this period emerge control walkway in livestock routes, water points, mountain passes or river fords as the Tagus River Trail. Metallurgical production sites were built to the north of the Tagus River in Portugal and along the Tinto-Odiel estuary, home to the Tartessian Civilisation during the 10^th and 11^th centuries BC. By the 8^th century BC the Atlantic metallurgy was predominant on the entire Iberian Peninsula, especially at settlements in fertile and grassy areas along the river plains. Such settlements were frequently left open and unprotected, but at other times, built inside walled enclosures. Phoenician merchants began to appear on the coasts around this precolonial period, and later, towards the end of the 7^th century BC, the Greeks.<br>

Stones were finely burnished to be fashioned as useful tools and microliths embedded in polished wooden handles were made with an angular shape suitable for cutting, scraping, and penetrating their prey; samples of small painted rocks depicting this phenomenon have been discovered in some settlements.}}

The arrival of the Neolithic, a time period measured in milennia, signalled the transition from a hunter<div style="display:inline-block; vertical-gatherer to a progressively agrarian and ranching lifestyle with permanent dwellings. This monumental, evolutionary change began with formation of the largest rivers in Asia and the Nile in Africa caused by climate change during the Holocene.

With this change, came a sedentary lifestyle, architecture, social hierarchies, religions, and technological innovations. According to diffusion theories, these lifestyle changes were brought to the Iberian Peninsula from the Eastern Mediterranean. However, to adherents of autochthonous theories, the changes occurred naturally in response to the evolution of the Mesolithic on the Iberian Peninsula. One theory asserts that there were four regions along the Peninsulafont-size:100%; font-weight:bold; text-align:center; margin:0; padding: Northeast Area, Levantine Area, Southern Area and South Atlantic Area, as can be seen on The Neolithic map. Another theory suggests it had logically spread throughout the entire Iberian Peninsula.

Like The use of this new metal technology, which required furnaces capable of reaching extremely high temperatures, did not spread homogenously throughout the art Peninsula.

These diverse regional differences (evident at some archaeological sites) led to transformations in how these images societies were found on parietal walls organised throughout the Peninsulaterritory, frequently comingled with paintings signalling that the Iberian people were entering into a new era (known as ancient history) and engravings from later periodsleaving Prehistory behind. They were concentrated in three large areas<br>This long epoch known as the Iron Age is conventionally divided into two stages: the GalicianEarly Iron Age (750 BC -Portuguese region500 BC) and the Late Iron Age (500 BC - 200 BC, as illustrated in the maps of the same tittle.<br>The Early Iron Age is characterised by two large civilisations occupying two distinct Iberian geographical regions: one in the southand the other, in the east of the Peninsula. The accepted notion that these civilisations were influenced by Mediterranean cultures is supported by the discovery of Protocolonial remnants on the east coast. There is also evidence of Phoenician colonisations in the Southern Mediterranean and Atlantic (Gadir) regions and most commonlyof the first Greek colonies, including those established by groups under Greek influence. Moreover, there were the great Tartessian settlements in Andalusia, particularly along the East coastTinto, Odiel and Lower Guadalquivir rivers.<br>In the north and middle of the Peninsula, the communities remained isolated from Mediterranean influences and retained their indigenous identity and traditions (including, in some cases, the use of bronze). Such behaviour was exhibited by the Late Burial Urnfields Culture (Catalonia and the Ebro Valley), Sorian hillforts culture, the Atlantic Cultures (Portugal, Galicia, and the Cantabrian Cornice), so prevalent in this area that it is often referred addition to as “Levantine Art”the Soto de Medinilla culture in the Douro river basin.<br>

Characterised by their labyrinth-shaped designs, the petroglyphs in the north and northweast are also worth mentioning, particularly those at Mogor in Marín and the anthropomorphic Ídolo de Peña Tú in Asturias. Engravings and paintings of these types represent a way of communicating that was perhaps a precursor to the first pictograms.{{clear}}

Despite regional variations in dating and definitively describing the period known as the Copper Age{{ANEAutoria|Autores= María Sánchez Agustí, it can be roughly classified into two periods: the Early ChalcolithicJosé Antonio Álvarez Castrillón, dating from the first half of the Third Millennium (starting in 2250 BC) and the Late ChalcolithicMercedes de la Calle Carracedo, occurring from 2250 BC to 1900 BC.

Bronze arrived <br>Archaeological evidence regarding early Phoenician presence on the Peninsula through reveals they had already started establishing commercial contacts in the area before the 8^th century BC or precolonial era. Asthe Pyrenees Phoenicians began to permanently settle in the Third Millennium southwestern reaches of the territory and gain control of this area sometime after the 7^th century BC , close trading relations were gradually developed with the Punic cities of the Near East and Northern Africa. A network of commercial trading routes was used along with copper established. Their products were exported from their Metropoli to make tools and objectsthe Iberian Peninsula through developing markets on the Iberian coasts, according to stratigraphic studies of expanding into the Bauma del Serrat del Pont site (Girona)interior.

Trade increased during the Early Bronze Age and there are strong indications that society was becoming increasingly socially stratified[[File:The_Lady_of_Baza_Dama_de_Baza. This was evidenced by the discovery jpg|right|thumb|300px|Image: The Lady of burial sites for single individuals Baza (mainly in burial pits and megalithic cistsDama de Baza) as well as by differences in the quality and quantity of funerary objects placed in these sites. The Argar culture, which succeeded the bell-shaped ceramicMuseo Arqueológico Nacional, and produced a wide range of ceramic objects, was no longer the only flourishing culture on the Peninsula, according to research carried out in the last 50 years. The Bronze Age map shows the emergence of a diversity of cultures chronologically beginning with the Protocogota settlements on the Nothern Plateau around 2000 BCMadrid.]]

The late colonisations of the areas around Huelva and the Lower Guadalquivir facilitated the growth of the Tartessian culture (it has been spoken about the kingdom of the Tartessos and even about some of its kings) in the Early Iron Age or Iron Age I. This historical and cultural development featured profound changes in the region's indigenous societies. In the Late Bronze Age began around and the Iron Age I, they transitioned to mining and exploiting the land in the 11th century BC with three different Guadalquivir valley for agricultural purposes, making necessary frequent exchanges and other forms of social interactions. Growing cultural currents predominating: Central European, Atlantic, social and economic influences from the Eastern Mediterraneanwere becoming evident in these communities. With an increase in cultural exchangesThis phenomenon is both evidenced by and attributable to the importation of ceramics, objects made of precious metals, fabrics, oil, and wine.<br>The Tartessian civilisation, initially limited to the areas along the Tinto, these civilisations mixed with native culturesOdiel and lower Guadalquivir rivers, eventually evolving into what are known as Precan be seen on the map ''[[:File:Spain_Early-Iron-Roman culturesAge_2014_map_13977_eng. Major changes took place jpg|Early Iron Age]]'', expanded throughout the southern reaches of the Peninsula to the mouths of the Guadiana and new traditions aroseSegura Rivers. In The influence of the Tartessian culture had also spanned the southeastern part of the Peninsula, the southern eastern region, the southern coast of Portugal and the Northwestinterior of Andalusia. Remnants of a Tartessian capital, or of a cultural epicentre have yet to be found despite a tireless search by archaeologists.<br>Meanwhile, they began the centre of the Peninsula was much slower to adapt to cremate their dead the technological changes taking place, and as a consequence, its populations did not experience the same level of growth and leave prosperity as their ashes counterparts in the south. The central territory eventually began to be populated by small fortified villages. An example of this is the Soto de Medinilla culture (which is named after the most thoroughly studied settlement in urnfieldsValladolid) in the Douro Valley.<br>By the Iron Age II (500 BC, many years before Romanisation), while in the middle use of iron was widespread throughout the Peninsula , greatly increasing the number and in variety of available tools. At the northern same time, new social and western regionseconomic structures arose on the Peninsula, highly sophisticated bronze weapons built on foundations laid from the peoples of the previous era. These cultural and objects territorial changes were commercially tradeddescribed by Greco-Latin writers, particularly by Pliny and Strabo. The process of acculturation initiated subsequently by Rome was influenced by these Iberian developments. And lastly, merchants <br>Historians and new cultural groups arose in archaeologists have pointed out the difficulty of linking the data from material remains to information provided by historiographic or literary sources because the Mediterranean information is often confusing and southern regions contradictory. Nevertheless, the field of archaeology is making a concerted effort to identify the geographic distribution of Pre-Roman communities based on data obtained from research, as illustrated on the map ''[[:File:Spain_Late-Iron-Age.-Pre--Roman-peoples_2014_map_13985_eng.jpg|Late Iron Age. Pre-Roman peoples]]''.<br>The map shows the location of the major archaeological settlement sites identified on the Iberian Peninsulacompared to the areas traditionally ascribed to the principle ethnic groups in archaeological literature. This map and its associated information, foreshadowing should be read and interpreted recognising that the future colonisation borders of the areas occupied by these population groups are generally loosely defined since there were constant social and economic interactions between their respective populations. As a consequence of such interaction over the centuries, these areaswere constantly expanding and contracting over the centuries, inevitably producing border uncertainty. MeanwhileThe Lusitanian and Veton population groups are examples of this.<br>In the south and east, advances the influence of Colonial Greek acculturation on pre-existing populations varying in metallurgy social status, led to the development eventual establishment of a unified Iberian culture, made up of different groups such as the Turdetani, Bastetani, Oretani, Turduli, Contestani, Edetani, Ilercaones, Ilergetae, Cessetani, Laietani, Indiketes and Sedetani. Its preponderance in the Peninsula (not in vain named Iberian), is explained by its intense commercial activity, the refinement of goldsmithingagricultural techniques, and its specialization in typically Mediterranean crops (cereals, vines, olive trees), as evidenced well as by the Treasure development of specialized iron metallurgy and the growth of Villena its population, which gives the entire Mediterranean coastline a higher population density. Their acts of worship and funerary rituals (cremation) reveal a well-structured social hierarchy and a more advanced society. With the introduction of palatial sistem, the peoples of this Iberian culture began the process of urbanisation. They produced important works of art like The Ladies (''damas'') of Elche (Alicante), Baza (Granada), Guardamar (Cabezo Lucero, Alicante) and Cerro de los Santos (a lost sanctuary near Yecla). Livestock routes stretching inland were They also builtcreated high quality metal works of gold and silver, as revealed can be seen by treasures found at some excavation sites such as Peña Negra in Crevillent Jávea (Alicante) and at Cástulo and Linares (Jaén). These external influences did Moreover, they had an alphabet, albeit notfully unravelled which spread to the south of France and was used until it was replaced, howeverduring the period of Romanisation, impede indigenous developmentby the Latin language and alphabet.<br>The rest of the Peninsula reflected a conglomeration of indo-European-rooted peoples some more influenced by the Celts than others. Examples There were those on the Plateau: Celtiberi, Vaccaei and Vettones; on the Atlantic coast: Celtici of this can be seen from the Cogotas culturesouthwest, Lusitani and Callaeci (Northwest hillforts groups); and in the north, Astures, Cantabri, Autrigones, Varduli, Caristii and Berones. The Vascones located in the Navarran Pyrenees, which extended were also in the north.<br>The most recent research on the geographical distribution of the population on the Iberian Peninsula during the Iron Age II shows an overall gradual population increase throughout the territory attributable to the expansion of walled settlements (where population tended to concentrate), although the Douro and Tagus river basins growth varied from region to region. Many of these communities arose starting in the 11th 2^nd century BCwith the creation of ''Oppida'', as well as from authenthic urban centres with administrative functions and territorial power. These ''Oppida'' eventually became ''civitates'' with the Roman occupation of the Talayotic culture Peninsula. Life was pastoral and reliant on subsistence farming, primarily involving dried grains, particularly in the Douro and Ebro river basins. There were notable developments in ceramics and metallurgy (particularly for weapons, fibulas, and bracelets) and in the growth and expansion of commercial trade. Noteworthy examples evidencing significant artistic advancement include rock sculptures of boars made (''verracos'') by the Balearic Islands at Vetton culture and the end monolithic stone discs of the Naviform periodCantabrian stela.<br>
