With regard to the accessibility project developed, the ONCE representative highlighted the important effort made by the MARQ in this area since its foundation more than ten years ago. Among the actions we have carried out jointly, we can highlight the adaptation of exhibitions, the training of museum staff to be able to attend to people with disabilities or the creation of guides aimed not only at blind people but also at those with other disabilities.<\/u>said Cristina P\u00e9rez.<\/p>\n

During the visit, Pastor was also able to get to know the evolution<\/strong> of the summer archaeological excavation campaign<\/strong> that MARQ is currently carrying out in the Tossal de Manises. A total of 22 students <\/strong>from the University of Alicante and the UNED of Elche are taking part in this project, which began last year. 27 June <\/strong>and which has already made it possible to demonstrate chronologically that the city was founded during the second half of the 3rd century BC.<\/strong>The Carthaginians, most probably by the Carthaginians and, in particular, by order of a member of the Barca family.<\/p>\n

The archaeologists working in the area have also been able to confirm that the most important infrastructures of this city<\/strong> -walls, street patterns and cisterns rose in unison<\/strong>This gives a clear idea of prior planning and design. In addition, the following have been documented new traces of the destruction of this city<\/strong> which undoubtedly took place in the the last years of the Second Punic War<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It was probably due to a Roman military action at a time very close to the conquest of the Carthaginian capital of the Iberian Peninsula: Carthago Nova, in 209 BC, explained Manuel Olcina.<\/p>\n

MARQ excavation campaigns<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

The excavation programme carried out by the Alicante Provincial Council through the MARQ during the 2013 summer period is completed with campaigns at other archaeological sites in the province such as the medieval Pobla de Ifach <\/strong>o the slopes of the Castle of Callosa de Segura<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
