520 _aThe clay antefix head of Heracles with the lion skin (from Saltes, Huelva, Spain) was strongly influenced by Phoenicians from North Syria, who had migrated to the South Iberian Peninsula. It is still uncertain whether the head is from a sanctuary of Heracles-Melqart, as some scholars suggest. Etruscan bronzes and large Laconian bronze vases appeared in Spain in the course of the sixth century. Tartessian craftsmen gradually incorporated motifs from these works in their work. The process is obvious in the Saltes head of Heracles, which suggests that new experiments in terracotta arts were engaging the bronze smiths of Huelva.
