Events
The archaeological remains found at <i>Ratlla del Bubo</i> site confirm the presence of Solutrean human settlements during the Upper Paleolithic.[1][2]
During the 13th century, under the Al-Andalus rule, a network of qanats was created to supply water to the population of Crevillent. The most visible element of this infrastructure today is the Els Pontets aqueduct.[3]
In the 19th century, it was the center of the raids of the bandit Jaume el Barbut.[4]
