Day 4 : Moray Archaeological Site & Maras Salt Mine
Guided visit to MORAY, archaeological unique site .
It is gigantic natural depressions or holes in the ground surface were used to construct in outline agricultural terraces or platforms with their irrigation canals.
What catches the eye is the average annual temperature difference between top and bottom of the depressions, which reaches up to 15 ° C in major depression about 30 meters deep.
MORAY, due to climatic conditions and other characteristics, was an important center of domestication, acclimatization and hybridization of wild plant species that were modified or adapted for human consumption.
Then we drive to the salt mines located 7 miles from Moray, pass through a typical Spanish village called Maras. To the northwest of the town of Maras are the famous salt mines that are constituted by about 3000 small pools with an average area of about 5 m², built on the side of the slope of the mountain "Qaqawiñay " that during the dry season are filled with "water " that emanates from a natural manante located on the top of the wells so that when water evaporates, the salt content in it gradually solidifies.
This process will continue for about a month until a considerable volume of solid salt, about 10 cms. height from the floor, beaten, and then granulated, and salt is then bagged in plastic bags and shipped to markets in the region.
