Mogente (Moixent in Valencian) is a small town known for the Bastida de les Alcusses, one of the most important Iberian archaeological sites in Spain. The hilltop settlement dates from the 4th century BC, and the famous Guerrer de Moixent — a small bronze warrior figure — was found here. It's become the symbol of the town.
Basic services are available. The town sits in increasingly arid, mountainous terrain as the camino approaches the border with Castilla-La Mancha.
The Bastida de les Alcusses was a fortified Iberian settlement occupied in the 4th century BC. The site was destroyed suddenly — possibly by fire during a conflict — and the inhabitants appear to have fled, leaving behind a remarkable collection of artifacts. The Guerrer de Moixent, a 7-cm bronze figurine of an Iberian warrior on horseback, is the most famous find and is now in the Museo de Prehistoria de Valencia.
