History Of SpainAncient Civilizations
The history of Spain's ancient civilizations refers to the time period before the fall of the Western Roman Empire in the 5th century AD, including the various pre-Roman cultures that inhabited the Iberian Peninsula such as the Iberians, Celts, Phoenicians, Greeks, and Carthaginians. These civilizations developed complex societies with their own languages, religions, and political structures, leaving behind significant archaeological remains that provide insight into their way of life. The interactions between these indigenous peoples and subsequent Roman conquest and colonization played a crucial role in shaping the cultural landscape of what would eventually become modern-day Spain.
