  • Social Dynamics, Knowledge Spheres, and Technological Transfers in Balearic Island Pottery during the 2nd Millennium b.c

    Jaume García-Rosselló, Manuel Calvo Trías et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Field Archaeology•2024•Referencias: 42

    The Middle and Late Bronze Ages can be characterized by an increase in connectivity, and the Balearic Islands are no exception. In order to more deeply explore this phenomenon, we analyze pottery forming processes by studying manufacturing traces, which allow us to observe technological practices and the transfer of technical know-how. Our case study is centered around a technological analysis of the most common type of pottery: a cask shaped ves…

  • Watching the horizon

    Manuel Calvo Trías, Alejandra Galmés-Alba•ARTICLE•The Journal of Island and Coastal…•2024•Citada por: 3•Referencias: 11

    During the Middle and Late Bronze Age, communities across the Balearic Islands (Western Mediterranean) established a high degree of connectivity both between islands as well as between the islands and the mainland. Evidence of this phenomenon can be traced not only through the existence of foreign materials, but also through shared practices, habitus, and objects across the islands. To better understand the maritime mobility practices that underp…

  • In Pursuit of the Analytical Unit. Island Archaeology as a Case Study

    Open Access•Manuel Calvo Trías•ARTICLE•Cambridge Archaeological Journal•2024

    The present study offers an epistemological and ontological historiographical review of the concept of the unit of analysis using island archaeology as a case study. We carry out a critical investigation to lay out the main ideas used to define units of analysis, and we consider the discourse that has emerged between this and other fields when defining such a concept. From an epistemological point of view, we can define three distinct strategies:…

  • Almost the same, but not quite

    Open Access•Laura Perelló Mateo, Bartomeu Llull Estarellas et al.•ARTICLE•Archaeological and Anthropological…•2024•Referencias: 56

    In the present work we carry out a study of all the Late Bronze Age swords recorded in the Balearic Islands. They represent a set of local practices and traditions alongside foreign ideas and archetypes. To carry out the study, we employ a strategy that joins technological and archaeometric analyses with approaches that consider isotopes and typologies. Of note among the data considered is the importance of metal coming from deposits in Linares, …

  • The long and winding road

    Open Access•Laura Perelló Mateo, Bartomeu Llull Estarellas et al.•ARTICLE•Documenta Praehistorica•2024•Citada por: 1

    In this paper we address the biography of a set of copper nails recovered in 1998 from a Late Iron Age structure located at the archaeological site of Puig de Sa Morisca (Mallorca, Spain). The archaeometric and typological analyses conducted on these nails allowed us to relate them to nautical technology, as well as to approach the origin of the raw materials and the production processes involved in their manufacture. The biographical information…

  • Paths Across the Sea

    Manuel Calvo Trías, Alejandra Galmés-Alba et al.•ARTICLE•The International Journal of…•2023•Citada por: 1•Referencias: 18

    Throughout history the Balearic Islands have had different degrees of social connectivity between the islands themselves and between them and the mainland. While the influence of historical dynamics is well documented, less so is the impact of winds, currents, and meteo-marine conditions. This paper analyses the meteo-marine conditions for coastal navigation to better understand how these configured the main maritime routes across the islands. We…

    Human communities that inhabit small islands often express some kind of fragility and ‘islandness’ that requires the development of certain strategies to minimize the risks involved in occupying hazardous environments. In this paper, we interpret the technological choices developed by Bronze Age potters’ communities from the small island of Formentera (Balearic Islands, Spain) by studying certain features of pottery pastes and some typological as…

    The Son Ferrer archaeological site presents a series of successive occupations spanning a long period of time. At the beginning of the Iron Age (∼850 BC), a staggered turriform structure was built for a ritual purpose over an artificial hypogeum that had already been used as a collective necropolis during the Early Bronze Age (∼1800–1500 BC). Later, in the post-Talayotic phase (Second Iron Age, 550–123 BC), the hypogeum was again reused as a coll…

    Open Access•Bartomeu Llull Estarellas, Laura Perelló Mateo et al.•ARTICLE•Zephyrvs•2023

    En este trabajo se presentan los análisis de isótopos de plomo del depósito de Lloseta, Mallorca, y se estudian las posibles procedencias de la materia prima con la que fueron elaborados estos objetos. Este depósito del Bronce Final está considerado uno de los más importantes de las Islas Baleares, debido al marcado carácter local de los diseños de las piezas y, probablemente, uno de los más antiguos documentados. Los resultados de los análisis m…

    Throughout history the Balearic Islands have had different degrees of social connectivity between the islands themselves and between them and the mainland. While the influence of historical dynamics is well documented, less so is the impact of winds, currents, and meteo-marine conditions. This paper analyses the meteo-marine conditions for coastal navigation to better understand how these configured the main maritime routes across the islands. We…

  • Social Dynamics, Knowledge Spheres, and Technological Transfers in Balearic Island Pottery during the 2nd Millennium b.c

    Jaume García-Rosselló, Manuel Calvo Trías et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Field Archaeology•2024•Referencias: 42

    The Middle and Late Bronze Ages can be characterized by an increase in connectivity, and the Balearic Islands are no exception. In order to more deeply explore this phenomenon, we analyze pottery forming processes by studying manufacturing traces, which allow us to observe technological practices and the transfer of technical know-how. Our case study is centered around a technological analysis of the most common type of pottery: a cask shaped ves…

  • Bioavailable 87 Sr/ 86 Sr variability and Bronze and Iron Ages caprine mobility on the Balearic Islands (Spain)

    This paper presents the most extensive 87Sr/86Sr datasets from Late Prehistory contexts in addition to bioavailable 87Sr/86Sr values for baseline characterization on the Balearic Islands. A total of 149 caprine dental enamel samples from Mallorca, Menorca, and Formentera islands (Spain), and 35 environmental baseline samples covering the main geologies of these islands are presented here. In addition, a combination of strontium and oxygen sequent…

  • Watching the horizon

    Manuel Calvo Trías, Alejandra Galmés-Alba•ARTICLE•The Journal of Island and Coastal…•2024•Citada por: 3•Referencias: 11

    During the Middle and Late Bronze Age, communities across the Balearic Islands (Western Mediterranean) established a high degree of connectivity both between islands as well as between the islands and the mainland. Evidence of this phenomenon can be traced not only through the existence of foreign materials, but also through shared practices, habitus, and objects across the islands. To better understand the maritime mobility practices that underp…

  • In Pursuit of the Analytical Unit. Island Archaeology as a Case Study

    Open Access•Manuel Calvo Trías•ARTICLE•Cambridge Archaeological Journal•2024

    The present study offers an epistemological and ontological historiographical review of the concept of the unit of analysis using island archaeology as a case study. We carry out a critical investigation to lay out the main ideas used to define units of analysis, and we consider the discourse that has emerged between this and other fields when defining such a concept. From an epistemological point of view, we can define three distinct strategies:…

  • Almost the same, but not quite

    Open Access•Laura Perelló Mateo, Bartomeu Llull Estarellas et al.•ARTICLE•Archaeological and Anthropological…•2024•Referencias: 56

    In the present work we carry out a study of all the Late Bronze Age swords recorded in the Balearic Islands. They represent a set of local practices and traditions alongside foreign ideas and archetypes. To carry out the study, we employ a strategy that joins technological and archaeometric analyses with approaches that consider isotopes and typologies. Of note among the data considered is the importance of metal coming from deposits in Linares, …

  • The long and winding road

    Open Access•Laura Perelló Mateo, Bartomeu Llull Estarellas et al.•ARTICLE•Documenta Praehistorica•2024•Citada por: 1

    In this paper we address the biography of a set of copper nails recovered in 1998 from a Late Iron Age structure located at the archaeological site of Puig de Sa Morisca (Mallorca, Spain). The archaeometric and typological analyses conducted on these nails allowed us to relate them to nautical technology, as well as to approach the origin of the raw materials and the production processes involved in their manufacture. The biographical information…
