- Abstract
The preliminary results of the underwater surveys undertaken in the surroundings of Isla de Adentro (Mazarrón, Murcia) between 2015 and 2020 are presented in this paper. The methodology has taken into account the dual nature -research and teaching- of the project, and has been based on intensive surveys and excavation at points of clear interest. The six campaigns carried out so far enhance the panorama of Phoenician colonization in this important spot on the Murcian coast: on the one hand, they confirm the intensive use of the place at the time of the wellknown «Mazarrón shipwrecks», late 7th c. BC, but also show evidence of an earlier Phoenician presence and the use of the area as an anchorage. All this underscores the importance of Mazarrón and the Southeast of Iberia, halfway between the Straits -especially the area of Málaga- and Ibiza, in the Phoenician colonial system.
