extant remains
The remains of a Roman bridge known locally as Puente Viejo or Puente de Cañete lying one mile west west of Obulco on the Arroyo Salado. The bridge may have been associated with a conjectured secondary Roman road or route between Corduba and Catulo because although unmentioned in the Antonine Itinerary, the bridge's location lies between two mentioned stations: Calpurniana and Vircao.
