History
Strabo identifies Orospeda as bordering Celtiberia on the south. The Barrington Atlas tentatively locates it in and arround the Sierra de Segura, just to the east of, and across the headwaters of the Guadalquivir river from, the Sierra de Cazorla, which it more confidently identifies with the Tugiensis Saltus.
