Sumario:The archaeological site of the San Chuis hill fort (Allande, Asturias, Spain) is located in the central part of the western Cantabrian Range. The site was occupied between 920 - 480 cal BC (2870 - 2430 cal BP) and 100 cal BC - 540 cal AD (2050 - 1410 cal BP). Repeated and long-lasting occupation resulted in the overlapping of architectural structures from the first and second Iron Ages and the Roman Period. The study of the wood charcoal remains from these structures allows us to distinguish two groups of wood remains. Those timbers used in the construction of the buildings and those used as firewood.
