The theory that there were two ports in Roman Alcúdia (Pollentia) has been confirmed thanks to the aid of aerial radar observation. It is now established that there was a port on the bay of Pollensa (in Barcares) as well as one right slap bang in the modern-day port area of Alcúdia. The theory as to the location of this latter port was given a boost when discoveries were made on a plot of land being prepared for development on the corner of the Coral and Mar i Estany streets (opposite the Coral del Mar hotel) in late 2007. Work on the site has been suspended ever since.
