Chronology and Funerary Practices Associated with Antennae Tumuli in Western Sahara
This study presents the results of the archaeological excavation of an antennae tumulus in Western Sahara, conducted at Wadi Lawash el Telli. While earlier research across the region had established a broad typological and chronological framework for prehistoric stone funerary monuments, the function and chronology of antennae tumuli had remained undocumented. Two AMS radiocarbon dates place the burial between 4417 and 4100 cal BP, providing the …
The environmental context of Middle Paleolithic occupations at Arbreda Cave (Serinyà, northeastern Iberian Peninsula)
Arbreda Cave in Serinyà (northeastern Catalonia) was periodically occupied by Homo neanderthalensis from 120,000 BP until 42,300–40,300 cal BP. However, the intensity of residential episodes varied significantly throughout the Middle Palaeolithic sequence. During MIS4 and MIS3, the Neanderthal occupations were sparse compared to the pronounced anthropogenic signal of the MIS5 layers. This phenomenon cannot be attributed to the technical capacitie…

Ecology of large ungulates in the northeastern Iberian Peninsula during the Upper Palaeolithic through stable isotopes and tooth wear analysis
The northeastern Iberian Peninsula acted as a refuge zone during the Late Pleistocene where the persistence of terrestrial ecosystems could provide hunter-gatherers with large prey, mainly horse (Equus ferus) and red deer (Cervus elaphus). Isotopic (δ13C, δ18O, δ15N) and dental wear (mesowear and microwear) analyses have been applied on the remains of both species from the archaeological sites of Arbreda and Bora Gran at Serinyà (Girona), where e…
The human remains of Final Gravettian age from the Reclau Viver and Mollet III caves (Serinyà, NE Iberian Peninsula)
The residential contexts of Gravettian hunter‐gatherers from Arbreda Cave (Serinyà, Northeast Iberian Peninsula)
During the Gravettian, Arbreda Cave was frequently occupied by hunter‐gatherer communities. Within this period, the archeological levels E (Iberian Middle Gravettian) and D (Final Gravettian), dated to ca. 26–20 kyr 14 C BP, are of particular interest, since fieldwork carried out during the 1980s revealed dense accumulations of archeological materials with remarkable concentrations of burnt remains. The archeozoological and taphonomic studies con…
Stable isotope evidence of human diet in Mediterranean context during the Last Glacial Maximum
The role of birds in Upper Palaeolithic sites
Dietary traits of ungulates in northeastern Iberian Peninsula
Small prey exploitation during the final Gravettian in the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula
Arbreda Cave is one of the most important sites in the Reclau Caves complex (Serinyà, north-east Iberian Peninsula). Its stratigraphy reveals that the cave was intensively occupied during the Upper Palaeolithic. As in other archaeological sites in the western Mediterranean regions, a shift towards an intensification in small prey exploitation has been observed over the course of this period. This trend is indicated by the presence of large quanti…
Dietary habits of the cave bear from the Late Pleistocene in the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula
Subsistence strategies of Gravettian hunter-gatherers in the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula
Early Holocene Occupations at Ashash Rock Shelter (Zemmur, Western Sahara)
The archaeological record of the Western Sahara remains extremely fragmentary, with very few sites systematically excavated. The excavation at Ashash rock shelter (Zemmur region) has provided, for the first time in the region, the evidence of superimposition of two prehistoric occupations that have been radiocarbon dated to the early 9th millennium cal. BP and to the mid-7th millennium cal. BP . The Epipalaeolithic occupation is strongly marked b…

Use and Sonority of a 23,000-Year-Old Bone Aerophone from Davant Pau Cave (NE of the Iberian Peninsula)
The production of sound is a significant human capacity that is used, through the generation of feelings and emotions, for conditioning social and biological reproduction. Despite this elevance and although several hundred instruments have been attributed to the production of sound along the Upper Paleolithic, our knowledge of how and in what contexts music was played during this period is still quite limited. In this paper, the aerophone found i…
The chronology of the earliest Upper Palaeolithic in northern Iberia
The Gravettian calvaria from Mollet III cave (Serinyà, Northeastern Iberian Peninsula)
Le Gravettien de la côte méditerranéenne ibérique
Même si les données disponibles pour le Gravettien méditerranéen ibérique sont réduites et dans des contextes stratigraphiques mal définis, nous présentons dans ce travail les révisions de quelques sites majeurs (Reclau Viver, l’Arbreda, Parpalló, Malladetes, Beneito et Cendres ainsi que de quelques autres gisements. La vision globale du Gravettien méditerranéen ibérique nous montre, dans la période ancienne, une faible présence mais une industri…
Variabilité des modalités de débitage et des productions lithiques dans les industries moustériennes de la grotte de l'Arbreda, secteur alpha (Serinyà, Espagne)
L’Arbreda, secteur alpha, fouillé en 1972 par J. M. Corominas, présente une stratigraphie moustérienne de plus de 3 mètres (couches 30 à 44), comprise entre le début du stade isotopique 5 et le stade 3. Les sept ensembles stratigraphiques moustériens (G à A) se sont déposés durant des phases fortement humides et humides/ fraîches (G à F), froides à extrêmement froides (E à C), puis plus tempéreés-fraîches (B à A). Les différents ensembles industr…
Paleoclimate and intersite correlations from Late Pleistocene/Holocene cave sites
During the last 10 years or so, magnetic susceptibility (MS) measurements of cave sediments from archaeological sites have been used for intrasite correlation and paleoclimate estimation. This is possible, if the context is appropriate, because the MS of these sediments result from climate processes active outside caves causing variations in magnetic properties of the sediments ultimately accumulating inside of caves. Once deposited, these materi…
