The author discusses possible astral and astronomical elements that could be related to the religious world of the pre-Roman Iberian culture. The widespread cult to a fertility goddess and her assimilation to eastern deities having celestial attributes, indicate possible astral elements in the ancient religion of the Iberians. Moreover, the presence of a custom in the orientation of Iberian shrines suggests that astronomy could have played a role in the construction and purpose of these sanctuaries. Finally, the author presents preliminary results on archaeoastronomical fieldwork performed at the Iberian shrine of La Serreta, which constitutes a suggestive starting point for further studies.
