Las Cuevas de Bencomo (La Orotava, Tenerife). De la historiografía al dato arqueológico
Las Cuevas de Bencomo son uno de los espacios más significativos de la arqueología de Tenerife, ligado especialmente al carácter emblemático por su identificación tradicional con el Mencey de Taoro. No obstante, este espacio no había sido fruto de una excavación sistemática que arrojara luz sobre cuál sería su cronología y su posible funcionalidad, entroncada en ocasiones con el problemático concepto de auchón. El presente artículo plasma los res…
Casa del Samarín, una estación de grabados rupestres en deterioro. Documentación, análisis y diagnóstico en Los Llanos de Ifara, Granadilla, Tenerife
Extended Abstract: In the archaeology of the Canary Islands (Spain), there are many studies based on the usage of new technologies to contribute to the identification and description of rock art engravings through high-resolution digital models ( Martín, 2005 ; Martín, Velasco, González & Ramírez, 2007; Senén & Cuenca, 2016 ; Navarro & Cancel, 2019 ). This paper is supported by these documentation techniques and digital analysis in order to deepe…
Identification of prehispanic rotary querns production areas in Las Cañadas del Teide (Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain)
The Courtyard of TT 209 (Areas C1 and C2) Seasons 2012 to 2014
In 2012, the Archaeological Mission of the University of La Laguna began its work in TT 209 (Luxor, Egypt) under the name Proyecto dos cero nueve [Project two zero nine]. The objective of this article is to present a synthesis of the processes of excavation and documentation in the area of the tomb where activities began, the courtyard (areas C1 and C2), during the first three seasons (2012, 2013/14 and 2014). The working method is explained, the…
Footpaths Marked by Changes in Geological Clasts as Indicators of Mobility in Tenerife, Canary Islands
Studies on the mobility of past populations are useful in the interpretation of trade and lifestyle. Preservation of ancient paths is uncommon. In Tenerife, a volcanic island of the Canary Archipelago, ancient paths are still preserved, due to the dry climatic conditions and the presence of extensive lava fields in inhospitable areas of the Island. The Guanches who inhabited this island before the Spanish conquest, those surviving in the highland…
Prehispanic (Guanches) mummies and natrium salts in burial caves of Las Cañadas del Teide (Tenerife)
0.01). There are no reports that support the use of natrium salts in the embalming process among the Guanches, but we found a clear-cut relationship between the presence and/or amount of natrium salts in caves and their use as burial sites by the prehispanic population buried in the central highlands, suggesting an intentional use of caves containing this mineral as burial caves, based perhaps on the observation of the ability of natrium salts to…
