Set by the River Guadalmedina north of Malaga, the pueblo blanco (white town) of Casabermeja has a deep-rooted history. There's plenty of evidence of prehistoric settlement in the area, including cave paintings, and in 2021 scientists confirmed that human remains found by a member of the public were evidence of a 5,000-year-old necropolis.

The remains date from the period between the Neolithic and Chalcolithic ages, and so far excavations have revealed five burial sites within small caves, complete with funereal relics.
