Historical background
Gades, today's Cádiz, was held to be a foundation of Phoenicians from Tyre around 1100 BC and thus one of the oldest towns in western Europe. Lying beyond the Pillars of Hercules, it controlled the Atlantic trade in tin and fish; its temple of Melqart was famed far and wide. Later it became one of the richest towns of Roman Hispania.
