The Barrington Atlas Directory notes: Almuñécar

 
The original phase of the extensive fish-salting factory at Almuñécar dates to the fourth century B.C. and was built under Punic influence. The factory was later re-vamped during the Roman period. The fish products from Almuñécar were highly prized.
