Bronze of Levante

Bronze of Levante (Spanish: Bronce de Levante) is the name of the proto-Iberian culture extending approximately over the Region of Valencia (Spanish Levante) in the 2nd millennium BCE. It is contemporary with the El Argar culture by which it is strongly influenced.

Between c. 1500 and 1300 BCE, the people of this culture colonized La Mancha with military constructions called Motillas.
