Abstract


This paper makes an initial approach to the documentation of an archaeological site in Canexol beach in the Ons islet (Pontevedra, Galicia). According to the evidences documented so far, it looks like a series of fish salting facilities. Tha site, that was previously unknown within the achaeological literature, fills a void in the sequence of occupation of the islet, that should have been inhabited since the earlier prehistory to the present day. At the same time, this site underlines the importance of the sea resources for the live in the islet, very evident in the present day but also remarkable in the ancient times.
