Hello to all the readers of this blog! 
We are Marina Cárcamo Ruíz, Yoel Guillén-Brando Morales and Lucía Chávez Méndez. We are students from the Geography and History degree at the Pablo de Olavide University.
In the subject of the second year "Archaeology" we have been asked to do a research work of a Roman Palace and our choise is the CERCADILLA PALACE.
Our palace is located in Córdoba, Andalucía. In the past, it recieved the name of Corduba and was the capital of the Baetic province of Roman Hispania.

We hope you like our blog, presentation and video!.
