During excavation works in El Soto de Medinilla archaeological site which were carried out in the last systematic archaeological intervention between 1989-1990 a domestic oven for baking bread was documented in a context dated bay C in 690 BC –Full Phase–. In this paper, on the one hand parallels are sought on basis of its use and form; and on the other, it is related to other documented structures and archaeological data–carpological, anthracological, pollen and faunal– in their level origin. Finally its belonging to El Soto cultural tradition as posed by previous research is put into question and instead an explication that attends alliances and external influences from the peninsular south is proposed.
