The darker angels of our nature
Direct physical evidence for violent interpersonal conflict is seen only sporadically in the archaeological record for prehistoric Britain. Human remains from Charterhouse Warren, south-west England, therefore present a unique opportunity for the study of mass violence in the Early Bronze Age. At least 37 men, women and children were killed and butchered, their disarticulated remains thrown into a 15m-deep natural shaft in what is, most plausibly…
Biografías paralelas en geografías dispares? Los monumentos megalíticos de La Mina (Alcubilla de las Peñas, Soria) y El Pendón (Reinoso, Burgos) en su paisaje inmediato
En este trabajo se analiza el paisaje de dos monumentos megalíticos, La Mina y El Pendón, con el objeto de profundizar en las motivaciones y/o los condicionantes que llevaron a las comunidades prehistóricas a erigirlos en su ubicación concreta. Se pretende comprobar si las grandes similitudes atestiguadas en su biografía constructiva y de uso también se reflejan en lo paisajístico. Para ello, se ha empleado una metodología arqueogeográfica, que p…
"The "post-weanling's conundrum
The relationship between infant and child feeding practices and early mortality is difficult to address in past societies. Here, stable carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotope measurements of bulk bone and sequential dentine samples of deciduous second and/or permanent first molars of four younger children, one older child, one late adolescent, and two young adults (n = 8) from Moro de Alins cave, north-eastern Iberia, are used to explore the p…
Subsistence shift and socio-economic response to cultural and climate changes among north-central Iberian megalithic groups
Make a desert and call it peace
Once considered rare, archaeological examples of violence in prehistoric Europe have accumulated over recent decades, with new discoveries providing evidence of large-scale, organised warfare among pre- and protohistoric populations. One example is La Hoya in north-central Iberia. Between the mid fourth and late third centuries BC, the site was subjected to a violent attack, its inhabitants killed and the settlement burned. Here the authors prese…
A snapshot of subsistence in Iron Age Iberia
Isotopic evidence of strong reliance on animal foods and dietary heterogeneity among Early-Middle Neolithic communities of Iberia
Stable carbon and nitrogen isotope research on past populations in the Iberian Neolithic has emphasized the Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts. This study provides the first isotopic insights into the diet and subsistence economy of Early and Middle Neolithic populations from open-air sites in interior north-central Iberia. We present bone collagen carbon (?13C) and nitrogen (?15N) isotope ratios for 44 humans and 33 animals recovered from six cem…

New radiocarbon dating and demographic insights into San Juan ante Portam Latinam, a possible Late Neolithic war grave in North‐Central Iberia
OBJECTIVES: San Juan ante Portam Latinam is one of a small number of European Neolithic sites meeting many of the archaeological criteria expected for a mass grave, and furthermore presents evidence for violent conflict. This study aims to differentiate between what is potentially a single episode of deposition, versus deposition over some centuries, or, alternatively, that resulting from a combination of catastrophic and attritional mortality. T…
Patrones de aprovisionamiento de sílex de las comunidades superopaleolíticas del Pirineo occidental
Los estudios referentes a la gestin de los recursos lticos -especialmente el slex-por parte de los grupos prehistricos en las dos vertientes del Pirineo occidental han aumentado de manera considerable en las ltimas dcadas. En este trabajo, pretendemos realizar una aproximacin a la movilidad de los grupos superopaleolticos, mediante los Sistemas de Informacin Geogrfica (SIG). Estos nos permiten relacionar espacialmente los afloramientos de slex y …
En la ruta occidental del poblamiento de la Península Ibérica
Tradicionalmente, viene considerndose que el paso de los grupos humanos por los Pirineos resulta dificultoso durante el Paleoltico y existen, efectivamente, datos que contradicen este planteamiento. Incluso podemos valorar como verosmil la existencia de una regin paleoltica pirenaica, con rasgos culturales especficos y una serie de yacimientos implicados, especialmente durante el Magdaleniense. La existencia de rutas de trnsito a travs de los tra…

Se presentan los resultados del análisis de isótopos estables de carbono y nitrógeno sobre colágeno óseo de los individuos depositados en la cista guipuzcoana de la Edad del Bronce (II milenio cal. BC) de Ondarre. Los datos obtenidos sugieren una dieta mixta de origen terrestre basada en el consumo de plantas C3 y sobre todo de animales domésticos. No existen indicios de que los recursos marinos, lacustre-fluviales o las plantas C4 supusieran una…
Stones in Motion
Studies on lithic resource management –mainly flint– by prehistoric groups south of the western Pyrenees have significantly increased during the past decades. These studies usually focus on identifying outcrops and characterising the different varieties found at archaeological sites. However, the understanding of mobility and territorial management patterns based on raw materials is still very limited and has only been tackled in terms of lineal …
