Cartama is a Spanish town located approximately 20 kilometres from Malaga. It
lies at the foot of two small sierras and is at the head of the Guadalhorce
Valley. It was a luxurious place during the Roman period, with plenty of bath
and villas. Its main export was marble and valuable raw materials were mined
from the nearby mountains.
