Blurring the Lines Between Archaeological Scholarship and Gaming
Ditched and walled enclosures in Prehistoric Iberia (4th-3rd millennia cal. BCE)
Iberian Copper Age «ditched» and «walled» enclosure sites are often thought to represent two clearly distinguishable groups of sites. However, the discovery of sites where both ditches and walls are present («mixed sites») complicates things. There are good reasons to question whether the aforementioned dichotomy is real, or if, instead, it is largely an artifact of research, resulting from a combination of poorly preserved archaeological context…
Infectious diseases and the First Epidemiological Transition in Central and Western Eurasian prehistory
The hypothesis of a First Epidemiological Transition postulates that, with the advent of the Neolithic, the proximity to domesticated animals would have increased exposure to zoonotic pathogens, whereas the population growth and concentration that often follows the introduction of agriculture would have led to a high rate of transmission of infectious diseases. In this paper, we will synthesize the history of research on this issue. We will then …
Los recintos de fosos calcolíticos de la península ibérica, ¿fueron fortalezas? Análisis de Xancra y El Casetón de la Era desde una perspectiva poliorcética
A menudo, los llamados recintos de fosos neolíticos y calcolíticos de la península ibérica (IV-III milenios a. C.) han sido interpretados como fortificaciones. Sin embargo, escasean los estudios específicos sobre el particular. En este trabajo, se intenta contribuir al debate a través de analogías con fortificaciones históricas y prehistóricas bien conocidas. Se efectúa el análisis detallado, desde una perspectiva poliorcética, de dos recintos fo…
Massive Prehistoric Pit Sites in Southern Iberia
Archaeological sites characterized by significant concentrations of pits (‘pit sites’) were widespread in prehistoric Europe. In southern Iberia, many pit sites date back to the Late Neolithic and Chalcolithic periods (fourth‐third millennia BCE), and often display massive numbers of pits. Deciphering the social, economic, and symbolic significance of such sites, composed of hundreds or even thousands of pits, holds deep historical implications. …
The Phoenician diaspora in the westernmost Mediterranean
Important discoveries over the past 15 years in the coastal area between Huelva and Málaga in Spain have illuminated the beginnings of the eighth-century BC Phoenician diaspora into the Western Mediterranean. Here, the authors combine Bayesian modelling of recently published radiocarbon dates with the latest archaeological data to investigate the Phoenician presence in southern Iberia. Their assessment of its significance for the Late Bronze and …
Understanding Pit Sites
El Foso 1 de Perdigões dentro de la tradición arquitectónica monumental de la Prehistoria Reciente en la cuenca media del Guadiana (IV-III milenios cal AC)
Traditional approaches to the Late Prehistory in the middle Guadiana basin (south-western Iberia), have subsumed a variety of site types under a unifying category labelled ‘settlement site’. That included ‘walled enclosures’, ‘ditched enclosures’ and ‘pit sites’. However, they are very different in their form and features, the formation of archaeological deposits and their chronology. This suggests that more fine-tuned analyses, in which the emer…
The Unsuspected Circles. On the Late Recognition of Southern Iberian Neolithic and Chalcolithic Ditched Enclosures
Neolithic ditched enclosures appear to be widely distributed across Central and Western Europe, and from the Mediterranean area to Scandinavia. They have been known in areas of Europe for a long time, but particularly in the last 25 years studies on British, French, Central European, and Scandinavian ditched enclosures have flourished. In line with this, a number of international meetings occurred in the last three decades. In southern Iberia, by…
Dataciones absolutas para el foso 1 de Perdigões (Reguengos de Monsaraz, Portugal). Reflexiones sobre su cronología y temporalidad
En el presente artculo se da a conocer una serie de fechas radiocarbnicas correspondientes, todas ellas, al relleno del foso 1 del yacimiento portugus de Perdiges. La ocasin se aprovecha adems para discutir sobre la cronologa y la temporalidad de este yacimiento donde, junto a otras instituciones, la Universidad de Mlaga viene realizando actuaciones arqueolgicas desde el ao 2008. La lectura inicial nos advierte de los complejos ritmos de amortiza…
Monumental ditched enclosures in southern Iberia (fourth-third millennia BC)
Large curvilinear enclosures are now established as a principal instrument of human activity in Central Europe from the Neolithic into the Bronze Age(Antiquity, passim). Here the authors introduce us to examples from southern Iberia and make the case that they should be regarded as part of the same continent-wide phenomenon
El Complexo Arqueológico dos Perdigões (Reguengos de Monsaraz, Portugal). Prospecciones Geofísicas - Campañas 2008-09
En 1997, bajo la coordinación de Era-Arqueología, se efectuaron fotografías aéreas, prospecciones superficiales y sondeos arqueológicos en el yacimiento neolítico-calcolítico de Perdigões (Reguengos de Monsaraz, Portugal), donde, durante más de diez años, se han venido articulando las distintas actuaciones hasta disponer de un esbozo bastante aproximado de su planta. En 2006, se abrió un programa de colaboración entre diversas instituciones inter…
Aquí no hay quien viva”. Sobre las casas-pozo en la Prehistoria de Andalucía durante el IV y el III milenios AC
En este artículo se expresa una opinión crítica sobre la interpretación tradicional de los considerados poblados de fosos del Neolítico y Edad del Cobre del sur de la Península Ibérica. Especialmente, se discute la argumentación que identifica como fondos de cabaña muchas de las estructuras excavadas en el terreno. Se aborda la cuestión desde dos aspectos arqueológicos centrales: la formación de su relleno arqueológico y su naturaleza arquitectón…
