In 2014 it was possible to document and date for the first time the discovery of two of the pieces which, thanks to the consolidation and restoration work carried out at MARQ, could be exhibited for study and contemplation.<\/span><\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" El MARQ ha inaugurado esta mañana la exposición “Los Toros de El Argar” que [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"kia_subtitle":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-34413","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"meta_box":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34413","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34413"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34413\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34413"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=34413"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marqalicante-admin.qwair.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34413"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
