The heart of Andalusia is a mountainous area that is home to things so ancient that they lie beyond the limits of history.
I say this because there are valleys there that have been inhabited since prehistoric times, with necropolises whose origins date back thousands of years before Christ. An example of this is the latest video published by the always interesting YouTube channel Aventuras Entresierras (which I recommend you subscribe to), in which we can see a bivouac in a mountainous area next to a lake and a nighttime visit to a necropolis, whose burial mounds are now empty. An adventure led, once again, by the intrepid quadruped Alfred (the video is in Spanish; you can activate automatic English subtitles in the bottom bar of the player):
You can see some screenshots from this interesting and varied video here. Below, an image of the lake chosen by the video's protagonists for their bivouac.
The intrepid Alfred taking a bath. Upon seeing this image, the blog's water expert assured me, extremely worried, that Alfred's downy hair has gotten completely wet and he's sure to shrink...
One of the clever moments in this video involves this branch, which has two notches cut into it. If you want to find out its purpose, you can see it in the video.
The exterior of one of the burial mounds shown in the video, in which you can see the interior of some of them. Entering the home of the dead in the dead of night is something I can forgive these fellow countrymen of mine for, since in Andalusia they don't have the Santa Compaña (Holy Company) roaming the mountains. Here in Galicia we have an old warning: "Walk by day, for the night is mine."
