The archaeological site of La Ribera de Algaida or Ribera de Turaniana is one of the most important human settlements in the history of Almería because of his extension and his long occupation.[1] It has an extension from 20 to 30 ha, and it was occupied since the late Copper Age (from Argaric culture until Roman Era).[2] It was discovered in 1859 and it is located in Aguadulce (Almería).

On 17 September 1991 it was declared Bien de Interés Cultural (BIC) with the category of archaeological site.[3]
