Antequera was an important town in Roman times, but its history goes back much further. On Sunday we visited the Bronze Age burial mounds, which bear a fairly strong resemblance to Newgrange and the passage tombs in Ireland. We thought we’d see a bit more of the area, and intended to stop for a hike at El Torcal, but it was raining and visibility in the park was awful, so we admired the not-view (I believe there were supposed to be mountains to see?) and just came home. Looking back up once we got below the cloud, it was clear why we saw nothing! The views did get better as we got nearer home.
