The performance held at the Roman site of La Raya has been the realization of pilings for the subsequent installation of a deck and cleaning and archaeological restoration.

This site, in which excavations have been conducted since 2002 until now, has brought to light numerous wall structures, as well as abundant ceramic material and painted stucco, among others.

From here the village extends north into and the neighboring municipality of El Pilar de la Horadada.
