Design, function and tradition
A sample of over 1300 Neolithic pottery vessels from 59 archaeological sites in southern Spain is analysed by means of a systematic methodological protocol developed for the purpose of assessing the structure of morphological diversity. Geometric morphometrics and computational methods of classification are applied in order to identify the fundamental groups and classes, and explore the three fundamental forces – design, function and tradition – …
Sheep in Early Neolithic settlements in South Iberia, insights from proteomics
Domestic caprines have been identified in Early Neolithic Iberian sites by collagen proteomics. • Sheep specimens are linked to contexts of seminal neolithization of the Iberian Peninsula (ca 7500 BP). • Radiocarbon dating suggests a synchronous dissemination of caprine management across Iberia. • The study is supported by a critical update of proteomic biomarkers for caprine identification. The presence of sheep ( Ovis aries ) and goat ( Capra h…

Dehesilla Cave Rock Paintings (Cádiz, Spain)
A systematic survey of Dehesilla Cave was carried out during 2017 in order to search for traces of rock art. Several panels with paintings were identified in the chamber next to the entrance (consisting of strokes, dots, stains, and remnants of shapes in red and black), which had remained unnoticed up until now and may provide relevant information towards the understanding of the prehistoric use of the cave and its seemingly symbolic topography. …
Estratigrafía, materiales arqueológicos y dataciones del corte C005 de Cueva de la Dehesilla
Este artículo presenta los datos procedentes de un nuevo corte arqueológico –denominado C005– realizado en Cueva de la Dehesilla, situada en las estribaciones occidentales de la Cordillera Bética. El corte se ubica en la Sala 4 –una de las más profundas de la cueva-, al igual que el recientemente publicado corte C006, pero aporta una visión diferente sobre la secuencia, con características propias. En este trabajo, se da a conocer su secuencia es…
Cueva de la Dehesilla
Este artículo presenta los datos procedentes de un nuevo corte –denominado C006- realizado durante 2017 en Cueva de la Dehesilla. Por vez primera, se excava una de las salas más internas de la cavidad -sala 4-. El área intervenida muestra una secuencia estratigráfica datada desde el Neolítico Antiguo hasta el Neolítico Final, y cubierta por una gruesa colada calcárea. Concretamente, se presentan los datos estratigráficos, materiales –cerámicos y …
La cerámica del Neolítico antiguo de la Cueva de los Murciélagos de Zuheros
La Cueva de los Murciélagos de Zuheros (Córdoba) es una de las cavidades más relevantes en la historiografía arqueológica para el estudio del Neolítico en el sur de la península ibérica. Después de un recorrido por sus intervenciones arqueológicas, sus dataciones radiocarbónicas y el estado previo del conocimiento sobre sus cerámicas neolíticas, este trabajo tiene como objetivo fundamental presentar las bases del estudio del conjunto cerámico pro…
Human Ecology and the Southern Iberian Neolithic
Archaeology has long incorporated the methods of the natural sciences and the theoretical principles of the overarching scientific framework. Most archaeologists acknowledge the importance of a systemic perspective in the study of the evolution of human behavior, with emphasis on the contexts in which individuals and populations lived and interacted. This article develops an ecological approach to the subsistence patterns and dynamics of the Neol…
Early Neolithic Ritual Funerary Behaviours in the Westernmost Regions of the Mediterranean
An intact archaeological context named Locus 1 has recently been discovered at Dehesilla Cave (southern Spain). The ritual funerary deposition consists of a complete pottery jar with part of a human calvarium over the mouth, and was occulted by large stone blocks. This paper offers a presentation of the new data provided mainly by the stratigraphic, osteological, pottery, lithic and radiocarbon analyses. A systematic review of the relevant eviden…
The Early Neolithic at the Muge Shellmiddens (Portugal)
This article, on the Early Neolithic pottery from the Cabeço da Amoreira shellmidden in the Muge region of central Portugal, presents a detailed review of the evidence to date and a systematic analysis of the decorative and mineralogical characteristics of the stratified and radiocarbon-dated ceramic assemblage. A homogenous pottery manufacturing tradition seems to be present right from the beginning, including both local and non-local ceramics. …
Andalusi Populations at La Dehesilla Cave (Sierra de Cádiz, Southern Iberia)
Few studies have dealt with the occupation of caves during the Andalusi period in Southern Iberia. This may be explained by the attention placed traditionally on the trinomial mudun (cities), husun (fortresses) and qurà (farmsteads), in which other forms of rural occupation have been generally overlooked. In this paper we explore the sequence at La Dehesilla Cave –based on the analysis of animal skeleton remains, pollen, seeds and fruits, and phy…
La secuencia arqueológica andalusí (siglos XI-XII) de la cueva de la Dehesilla (sierra de Cádiz, España)
Se presentan en este trabajo los nuevos datos proporcionados por las actividades arqueológicas recientes llevadas a cabo en la Cueva de la Dehesilla (Jerez de la Frontera, Cádiz), concretamente la excavación de dos cortes en la plataforma situada en la boca de acceso a la cueva. Este yacimiento es de reconocida importancia para la Prehistoria reciente del sector sur-occidental de la Península Ibérica, pero brinda ahora una serie de informaciones …

La arqueometría de materiales cerámicos
Este artículo intenta valorar el impacto que la introducción de métodos de caracterización de materiales procedentes de la física y la química (y agrupados habitualmente bajo la denominación genérica de Arqueometría) ha tenido en la configuración metodológica de la investigación arqueológica de nuestro país durante las últimas dos décadas. Para ello se realiza un análisis bibliométrico de un ámbito específico de la aplicación de las técnicas arqu…
Assessment of university campus café service
This paper presents the results of a study conducted to examine the important attributes in food service provision on a large Australian university campus. Ten café outlets (A to J to maintain anonymity of the café outlets) positioned across a large university campus located in an urban residential area were surveyed. A total of 410 students participated in the survey. Based on the frequency of patronage to the cafés results showed that five of t…
Circus ‘C’
The concept of inclusivity is constantly discussed by a range of stakeholders from strategic to operational levels within arenas such as sport, tourism, the arts and leisure, often without any concrete understanding of the outcomes of such practices. The widest possible access to leisure for all likely participants is now the expectation by society at large and not just an ideal propounded by advocacy groups and people with disabilities. The chal…
International student graduation ceremonies
This purpose of this paper is to examine the significance of travel when associated with graduation ceremonies for the international student cohort. Due to the global growth in the international student market, the perceived importance of investigating this market in relation to the impact on tourism marketing is of timely significance. A mail survey of international students who completed their studies in a large Western Australian (WA) universi…
