Buried in the pantry
Entomology, the study of insects, is an integral part of modern forensic science and can also make substantial contributions in archaeology. Here, the authors report on archaeoentomological analyses conducted within the Cruz de la Esquina funerary cave (Acusa Seca, Gran Canaria, c . seventh–ninth centuries AD), offering insights into Indigenous practices. The identification of storage pests and various cadaveric species is used to interpret a cha…
Human Subsistence and Climate Change in the Late Pleistocene of North-western Africa
Ancient DNA from lentils (Lens culinaris) illuminates human - plant - culture interactions in the Canary Islands
The intimate relationship between humans and crop plants means that traces of human cultural practices become embedded in the crop genome. Genetic analyses of archaeological crop remains thus allow cultural consequences of societal change to be studied. The Canary Islands have a unique cultural history where the Hispanic colonization in the 15th century led to eradication of the indigenous culture, partial replacement of the human gene pool and a…
Peñacalera (Obejo, Córdoba). Biografía de un contexto sepulcral con restos orgánicos de la Edad del Cobre
Las prácticas funerarias del IV y III milenio cal ac se caracterizan en la mayor parte de la Península Ibérica por la generalización de la arquitectura megalítica, en paralelo a las importantes transformaciones sociales que tienen lugar a lo largo de la denominada Edad del Cobre. Al mismo tiempo, proliferan enterramientos colectivos en cuevas naturales en zonas montañosas del área meridional de Iberia, muchos de los cuales parecen compartir usos …
Insects in the far West
The Canary Islands were first settled by North African groups in the first millennium CE and, after a few centuries of interconnections with the mainland and between islands, remained isolated until the late medieval European expansion into the Atlantic. El Hierro is a small island located in the westernmost part of the archipelago that was inhabited by the bimbapes from the 2nd century CE until the 15th century European conquest. The archaeologi…

Un lugar entre las dunas. Aprovechamiento oportunista de un espacio costero durante la etapa preeuropea de la isla de Gran Canaria (circa siglos VIII-XI AD)
Este trabajo presenta los resultados del estudio pluridisciplinar de un asentamiento temporal preeuropeo situado en la Reserva Natural Especial de las Dunas de Maspalomas (Gran Canaria). Carece de estructuras estables de habitación, pero conserva de manera excepcional una estructura de combustión sobre la arena dunar. El sitio se ocupó en el cambio del I al II milenio AD, una etapa para la que se cuenta con escasos paralelos en la isla. Allí se d…
Use of decayed wood for funerary practices
Woodworking in the cliffs? Xylological and morpho-technological analyses of wood remains in the Prehispanic granaries of Gran Canaria (Canary Islands, Spain)
High-mountain plant use and management
Archaeoentomological indicators of long-term food plant storage at the Prehispanic granary of La Fortaleza (Gran Canaria, Spain)
Arqueoentomología y arqueobotánica de los espacios de almacenamiento a largo plazo
Este trabajo pretende contribuir al estudio de las técnicas de almacenamiento utilizadas en el pasado mediante el análisis de los restos entomológicos y vegetales presentes en el granero prehispánico canario de Risco Pintado, fechado entre los siglos IX y XV cal DC. Este tipo de granero se caracteriza por agrupar numerosos silos excavados en la toba volcánica y situarse en lugares escarpados de difícil acceso y fácil defensa. Las excepcionales co…
Late Glacial Landscape Dynamics Based on Macrobotanical Data
The site of Ifri El Baroud has one of the longest sequences excavated in recent times in NE Morocco, covering a chronology of ca. 23–13 ka cal BP. The sequence includes Early and Late Iberomaurusian levels and offers the possibility of investigating the economic, social and environmental processes that took place during this period. In this paper we present the results of the charcoal analysis carried out at the site with the aim of reconstructin…
Du laurier dans les greniers de Grande Canarie (Espagne)
Insect pests are one of the main problems in the long-term storage of food, especially for grains. It has been estimated that before chemical insecticides were used systematically, insects damaged around 10-20 % of the stored grain, and in certain conditions they could spoil the whole harvest. There are historical documents recording the use of organic and inorganic products to kill or dispel the insect, but there is little archaeological data ab…

Martín Les insectes constituent l’un des principaux problèmes rencontrés lorsqu’il s’agit de stocker sur le long terme des aliments, en particulier des céréales. On estime qu’avant l’emploi systématique d’insecticides chimiques, les insectes endommageaient au moins 10 à 20 % du grain stocké – lorsqu’ils n’altéraient pas la totalité de la récolte.
