Ruins with a high historical value, but abandoned. To promote tourism they must do some infrastructure and it is not very expensive. But it is worth visiting an initially Phoenician and later Roman enclave.

Not a lot to see. Access moderate, suitable for hikers, good footware essential. Good views of surrounding area. From Casares 3 hr round trip.

Tres kilómetros al oeste del casco urbano de Casares se localizan las ruinas de la ciudad romana de Lacipo. Se trata de un oppidum,una fortaleza de los habitantes locales, que pasa a tener categoría de ciudad bajo dominio romano,llegando a emitir moneda propia: un toro con estrella en el anverso y un delfín en el reverso,moneda con caracteres latinos pero icografia aún dw tradición púnica. Su mayor esplendor corresponde a las épocas republicana y augustea, aunque debió pervivir a lo largo de toda la época imperial (desde el siglo III a C. al siglo II de C.).

Three kilometers west of the urban area of Casares are the ruins of the Roman city of Lacipo. It is an oppidum, a fortress of the local inhabitants, which becomes a city under Roman rule, even issuing its own currency: a bull with a star on the obverse and a dolphin on the reverse, a coin with Latin characters but icography still dw Punic tradition. Its greatest splendor corresponds to the Republican and Augustan eras, although it must have survived throughout the entire imperial era (from the 3rd century BC to the 2nd century AD).
