Notable work

Mata, along with Helena Bonet Rosado and Joan Bernabeu Auban, published early work on the organisation of Iberian polities in the Valencian Community, arguing for hierarchical relationships between oppida in region.[2]

Mata and Bonet also published a typology of Iberian fine (class A) and coarse (class B) pottery, which is widely used by Iberian archaeologists.[3]

Mata led excavations at the Iberian site of Kelin, on the outskirts of modern Caudete de las Fuentes, and field surveys of the surrounding Requena-Utiel region.[4] The site of Kelin continues to be presented through public education events, particular 'open door' days.[5][6]

Mata and Bonet led the excavation of Puntal dels Llops, a small Iberian hilltop fort near modern Olocau.[7]

In recent years, Mata and colleagues have published on the actual and symbolic uses of plant and animal products in Iberian life.[8] This project has created online databases of the many types of evidence for these uses.[9]
