The enthusiasm and dedication she showed resulted in the award of a CH Study Scholarship from the Valpara\u00edso Foundation that will enable her to study, classify, catalogue then digitize the materials and information that has been discovered.<br \/>\n\tNoelia plans to continue studying Moj\u00e1car la Vieja in relation to other Almohad sites, looking at similarities and other influences, although she proudly declares that Moj\u00e1car has a personal focus for her attention.  Now she is waiting impatiently for the third campaign to begin, with the scholarship in place to allow her to continue accessing her dream and continue working on a project she really loves.<br \/>\nNoelia added, \u201cI am excited to see how Moj\u00e1car la Vieja has evolved in just two campaigns and in such a positive way\u201d.  It is something which she and her family feel very proud of and, she summed up her enthusiasm by saying, \u201cMoj\u00e1car la Vieja is not just another site, it is very important for the future of Moj\u00e1car.\u201d\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Noelia Aguado, who was born and grew up in Moj\u00e1car is graduated in Art History.
