摘要:On the occasion of the restoration of this important monument -the only lighthouse in use from the Roman times- an archaeological analysis of its walls was carried out in order to know better its construction technique and determine, as accurately as possible, the original date of each of its construction elements. It was thus possible to obtain a precise historical knowledge of each element when the restoration was about to begin. This also allowed a future correlating of the historical sequence of the building with that achieved in the obligatory excavation that was initiated in its surroundings. The exceptional importance of this lighthouse was worth the most meticulous and precise archaeological analysis possible.
