Las Cogotas is the name given to an archaeological site located in the municipality of Cardeñosa.

Located on a hill and fortified, it yielded a stratigraphic sequence that was divided into two major periods with a hiatus between them, one from the Late Bronze Age (Cogotas I) and the other from the beginning of the second Iron Age (Cogotas II).

Research at Las Cogotas provided a better understanding of peninsular lifestyles prior to the Roman invasion.

It was excavated by Juan Cabré in the 1920s and is the main reference point for the Vetones, a Celtic people who inhabited an extensive area that covered the present-day provinces of Ávila and Salamanca and part of Toledo, Zamora, Cáceres and the Trás-os-Montes de Portugal during the Iron Age.
