Summary

Around 2500 years ago, the area encompassing parts of Ávila, Salamanca, Zamora, Toledo, and Cáceres was once united by a shared culture – encompassing social organization, economic practices, material culture, the Vettic language, and religious beliefs – known as Vettonia. This region was recognized by Greek and Roman writers, and the Meseta plateau was undergoing intensive land use, characterized by deforestation and conversion of land for pasture and agriculture, likely due to the adoption of new farming techniques.
