Located in southwestern Spain's Andalusia region, Huelva sits at the confluence of the Odiel and Tinto river estuaries on the Atlantic Gulf of Cádiz [1]. Archaeological evidence suggests a pre-Phoenician settlement existed around 1250 BC, though this remains debated among scholars [1] [2]. By the 9th century BC, Phoenicians established a colony here [1] [2].
