Abstract
More than fifty years after the discovery of the first remains from
Pozo Moro, new research has begun to question the arrangement, until now
agreed upon, of the tower-shaped monument. The recent paper by García Cardiel
and Olmos (2021) employs iconography to sketch the possibility that the reliefs
and sculptures encountered in said necropolis do not belong to a single
monument, but two or more. In this paper we delve into this possibility by studying
a fragment of architectural moulding from Pozo Moro, which allows us to
conclude the possible existence of a pillar-stele datable between 425–300 BC,
when the necropolis was at its floruit. To reach this conclusion special attention
is paid to Iberian architectural ornaments, a subject seldom yet studied
