In ancient times, the first communities, societies and civilizations in the Iberian peninsula, according to archaeological evidence, began to develop following a progressive local evolution tempered by the significance of outside contacts. In order to reconstruct our history, resorting to ancient poets, we strive to distinguish reality from myth in the pursuit of a bond of certainty between the data provided by historical and literary sources and the excavated remains. Greek epics, based on the Illiad and the Odyssey, are the basis for the first speculations that link societies all along the Mediterranean coast, from east to west, with a common thread. However, how many times have we been told about mythical places, such as cities of great splendour and unique cultural progress? Did the land which Plato called Atlantis and Adolf Schulten linked to Tartessos truly exist? These answers may never be revealed (they are not at the forefront of research interests nowadays); for the time being, they are lost into a mythical and legendary world. Nonetheless, they remain alive over time. Spanish description: En tiempos lejanos, ahora sepultadas bajo la ca???da de los a???os, comienzan a formarse las primeras comunidades, sociedades y civilizaciones que se ir???n desarrollando en la Pen???nsula Ib???rica, por una progresiva evoluci???n local, sin descuidar la atenci???n de los contactos for???neos previa contrastaci???n arqueol???gica. Refugi???ndonos en figuras creadas por los antiguos poetas, tratamos de discernir entre lo que com???nmente se ha denominado mito-leyenda y lo real, buscando un v???nculo de certeza entre los datos que revelan las fuentes literario-hist???ricas y los vestigios que se desentierran de nuestra primera historia, aquella que tratamos de reconstruir. La ???pica occidental apoyada en los relatos hom???ricos de la Il???ada y la Odisea, son la base de las primeras conjeturas que con un hilo, unen a las sociedades que conviven en el Mar Mediterr???neo desde Oriente hasta Occidente. Pero ???cu???ntas veces hemos o???do contar relatos sobre m???ticas ciudades de gran esplendor e inigualable progreso cultural? ???Existi??? aquella tierra denominada por Plat???n "Atl???ntida" y que fue asociada por Adolf Schulten a Tartessos? Estas respuestas quiz??? nunca lleguen a desvelarse (tampoco est???n en la vanguardia de los intereses de la investigaci???n), por ahora s???lo est???n inmersas en un mundo m???tico y legendario, pero es cierto que se mantienen vivas, nost???lgicas, con el paso del tiempo.
