La aldea ibérica de L’Alt del Punxó
En este trabajo damos a conocer un hábitat rural de época ibérica excavado con motivo de recientes obras de construcción de la Autovía del Mediterráneo a su paso por la localidad de Muro de l’Alcoi (El Comtat, Alacant). La aldea está conformada por cabañas, instalaciones de procesamiento agrícola y un camino empedrado que se datan entre los ss. VII y IV aC. L’Alt del Punxó ha permitido un considerable avance en el conocimiento de las formas de oc…
New archaeological data from the abandoned island of Alofi (Hoorn archipelago, Western Polynesia)
The Hoorn Archipelago in Western Polynesia, comprising the islands of Futuna and Alofi, was in May 1616 the place of the very first long encounter between European navigators and Polynesians in the Central Pacific. The potential consequences of the two week stop of the Dutch sailors J. Lemaire and W. Schouten in Leava Bay have been a neglected topic of study until today. No proper consideration has been given to the possible introduction of forei…
The Iberian Peninsula
This chapter provides an overview of the Iron Age across the Iberian Peninsula, transcending the division between ‘Celtic/Indo-European’ and ‘Iberian/non-Indo-European’ areas which has characterized previous research. This division arose largely from diffusionist thinking that considered cultural development to be dependent on western European or Mediterranean influences respectively, and linked to historical processes led by the great Mediterran…
The Oxford Handbook of the European Iron Age
The Oxford Handbook of the European Iron Age presents to students, scholars, and interested general readers a broad overview of current understanding of the archaeology of Europe from 1000 bc to the early historic period. During this period, new technologies, agricultural innovation, and demographic growth saw much of the landscape opened up to near modern limits, accompanied in many areas by greater social and economic complexity. Three introduc…
Forging communities
Settlement dynamics in Iron Age Eastern Iberia point up the formation of coalitions of several sites under the control of Iberian towns. I present ideological strategies and ritual practices used to promote a sense of community in this new political order. The creation and re-creation of this communitarian identity is largely based in the construction of a sacred landscape with local sanctuaries. In addition, complex pottery iconography related t…
The Iron Age landscape of Alcoi Valley, eastern Iberia
New archaeological survey data are combined with previous evidence to examine the rural landscape during the Iberian Iron Age in the Valencia region of eastern Spain. One goal was to understand the settlement pattern and agricultural intensification through manuring. The second objective was to address the socioeconomic aspects of changes in the landscape. It is possible to trace the emergence of a hierarchical settlement pattern in the Iberian I…
Dinámica social, paisaje y teoría de la práctica Propuestas sobre la evolución de la sociedad ibérica en el área central del Oriente Peninsular
Recientes estudios sobre los paisajes de la Edad del Hierro en el área de la Cultura Ibérica han permitido elaborar sólidos modelos teóricos sobre la dinámica social de sus distintas comunidades. Partiendo de estos planteamientos, en especial del modelo de sociedad clientelar desarrollado por Ruiz y Molinos, proponemos nuevos matices y analizamos la dinámica social del área oriental de Iberia. Adoptamos una postura basada en la teoría de Agency c…
Settlement Dynamics and Social Organization in Eastern Iberia during the Iron Age (Eighth–Second Centuries BC)
This paper explores the formation of urban societies in the eastern Iberian Peninsula. From the Early Iberian Iron Age onwards it is possible to trace the emergence of a hierarchical settlement pattern in which larger settlements carried out the most important functions of control and exploitation of the resources in this territory, extending their authority over several small farming villages. This settlement pattern is associated with the compl…
