Setenil de las Bodegas can be found in the Andalucia region of Spain. This collection of dwellings built into rock is fascinating because of its location, as well as for the fact that it overhangs the Río Guadalporcún. Archaeologists suggest that this fascinating series of dwellings may be up to 25 000 years old, even though more modern settlements nearby share similarities in design. Settlers can be traced back to Setenil de las Bodegas for as far back as the 1100’s, now commonly referred to as the Arabic Almohad period.
