  • Dolmens in a Land of Caves

    Open Access•Alexandra Figueiredo, Cláudio Monteiro•ARTICLE•Humans•2026•References: 9

    The article presents the preliminary data from the excavation of the Azurrague 1 Dolmen (Ourém), carried out within the MEDICE II project, highlighting the importance of its location in a karstic landscape marked by a strong tradition of funerary cults in natural cavities. The dolmen structure features a heptagonal chamber and a short passage, with ritual deposits that include macrolithic tools, polished axes, ceramics, and human remains dated be…

  • Isotopic Evidence of Diet and Mobility From the Megalithic Burials of the Rego da Murta Dolmens (Portugal)

    Open Access•A J Waterman, Alexandra Figueiredo et al.•ARTICLE•European Journal of Archaeology•2025•References: 1

    This study uses stable and radiogenic isotopic data from Chalcolithic ( c. 3000–1900 bc ) humans and animals recovered from the Rego da Murta dolmens (Alvaiázere, Portugal) to understand dietary and mobility patterns in the populations using these monuments. The results suggest diets based primarily on C 3 plants and terrestrial animals, with some possible variation in protein intake by age or status. Analyses of 87 Sr/ 86 Sr values identify two …

  • The Planning and Orientation of the Rego da Murta Dolmens (Alvaiázere, Portugal)

    Open Access•Alexandra Figueiredo, Benito Vilas-Estévez et al.•ARTICLE•Proceedings of the Prehistoric…•2018•Cited by: 1•References: 11

    During the excavation of Rego da Murta Dolmen I, a structure belonging to a megalithic cluster in central Portugal, a number of small sub-quadrangular quartzite stones were found embedded within a layer below that of the deepest orthostat. In this paper, we report on these findings and highlight three key features of these small stones, namely their location relative to the dolmen’s plan, the distances between them, and their orientations. We sug…

  • Rituals and death cults in recent prehistory in Central Portugal (Alto Ribatejo)

    Open Access•Alexandra Figueiredo•ARTICLE•Documenta Praehistorica•2010

    The present paper aims to give a general outline of new data that contributes to a better understanding of cults and rituals in Alto Ribatejo, central Portugal, during recent prehistory. The Megalithic Complex of Rego da Murta is the only megalithic set known so far in the Upper Nabão region, and is therefore of crucial significance to understanding the population dynamics of the people who inhabited this region. The excellent preservation of dep…
