El Ejido is set to celebrate International Heritage Day with a diverse programme of cultural activities designed to engage the community and highlight the region's historical significance. The events will feature guided visits to the recent excavations at Ciavieja, alongside family-friendly workshops and a concert dedicated to ancient music.
Among the highlights of the celebration is the introduction of a new exhibit at the Archaeological Collection of El Ejido, which includes a funerary slab dating back to the first century AD. This slab is noted as the oldest artefact found in the Roman site of Murgi, underscoring the area's rich archaeological heritage.
The activities aim to foster a deeper appreciation for local history and heritage, inviting residents and visitors alike to explore the cultural treasures of El Ejido.
