Do they still find arms from the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939)?

SPAIN -- Yes, indeed. The Guardia Civil anti-explosive unit, called TEDAX, deactivates some 1,000 artefacts per year throughout the country. The region of Aragón is where they find more than anywhere else; so far this year alone they have dealt with 115 bombs ranging in size from 4 to 45 Kg. from all over the country; these did not include hand guns or rifles. Perhaps the most curious was a hand grenade that was discovered hanging from a branch of a pine tree. Other arms are often found during ploughing where Civil War battles were fought. On a more ‘human’ scale, the mountains of Andalucía contain the families of former Republican fighters, many of whom stayed in the hills after the Civil War was over, still fighting Franco many years after the war itself. Tradition demands that families and their members attain nicknames, so you will find quite a few guerrilleros out there.
