Getting invaded all the time and having the biggest gold mines in Europe pretty much doomed any civilization to grow in Spain without someone trying to conquer it or take advantage of it. Still Tartessos and the Iberian tribes that traded with the Greeks were pretty advance overall

What made them any less than the Myceneans? The Greeks were envious as shit of some of the cities in southern Iberia, "Tartessos".

Tartessos wasn't a phoenician colony. Ghades or Carthago Nova were tough.

Tartessos didn't exist as a city, it's a myth, originally probably it indicated a vast region rich of silver, Tarshish was used by Phoenician and other Semitic people as a term meaning silver mining region
