Anthropomorphic graves cut into the granite outcrops of the dehesa, some five hundred metres from the hermitage of the Virgen de la Luz. Study of the burials and the finds of pottery and coins date them between the 4th and the 7th century, late Roman in origin and mainly Visigothic in use. They lie in the open and are walked to.
