Fantastic view isn’t it? This is the Costa Blanca in Spain, holiday destination for hundreds of thousands of Brits every year.
But it once looked very different. 900 years ago this whole country was Islamic state and the towns down there would have looked like Cairo or Baghdad, a bit of North Africa in Europe.
This is the town of Denia, just along the coast from Benidorm. Over the next three days, Time Team have been given the opportunity to dig up more of Denia’s rich past. To find out just how exotic life really was here compared with the cold and mud of Medieval Britain.
