Abstract
The archaeological interventions carried out in Cacilhas during the 1980s and 1990s have unearthed a pattern of prolonged occupation dating back to the Iron Age. These excavations have yielded large quantities of pottery, the bulk of assemblage recovered, which also includes a crucible and an iron knife. These finds become increasingly relevant when Cacilhas’ location in a natural docking area and its proximity to the Quinta do Almaraz settlement are taken into account. This paper aims to evidence the pre-roman finds collected in Cacilhas, analyse the features encountered, in relation to their use and their connection to Almaraz, all the while integrating them in the backdrop of the first half of the 1st millennium BCE in the Tejo estuary.
