[EN] This paper analyses the settlement pattern in the basin of the river Guadamejud in the region of La Alcarria in the province of Cuenca during the Late Iron Age (3rd and 2nd centuries BC). The importance of this analysis lies partly in the fact that this area hitherto has been ignored by archaeological research. As a result of a comparative analysis settlements can be divided into two major groups because of differences in situation in the basin, geomorphological emplacement, presence/absence of defensive structures and size. The possibility of interpreting these two sets in terms of the existence of two different ethnic groups is put forward, taking into account that some classical authors set the limit of the Celtiberia in this area. In addition the ordered disposition of settlements in the basin suggests the existence of a road linking them.
[ES] En este art?culo se analiza el patr?n de asentamiento durante la II Edad del Hierro en la cuenca del r?o Guadamejud, situada en la comarca de la Alcarria en la provincia de Cuenca, zona hasta ahora pr?cticamente olvidada por la investigaci?n. El estudio comparativo de los poblados conduce a la identificaci?n de dos conjuntos de yacimientos diferenciados por su emplazamiento geomorfol?gico, localizaci?n, defensas y variabilidad en el tama?o. Se considera la posibilidad de que esta dualidad pueda correlacionarse con la existencia de dos grupos ?tnicos, lo que estar?a apoyado en parte por el hecho de que algunos autores antiguos sit?an en esta zona el conf?n de la Celtiberia. Por otra parte, la disposici?n ordenada en el espacio de los asentamientos sugiere la presencia de un camino que enlazar?a entre s? las poblaciones.
