Influences of seasonal prey availability and anthropogenic landscape on small-vertebrate based palaeoecological reconstructions
Birds of prey and carnivorous mammals are among the primary accumulating agents of faunal remains, mainly isolated bones and teeth in the karst sediment sites. The microvertebrate remains from their feces and pellets tend to be usually dispersed in the sediment at El Mirador cave (Atapuerca, Spain). Although, twenty small accumulations have been recovered in the Chalcolithic (MIR5) and Bronze Age (MIR4) levels. These accumulations contain an extr…
Adapting to Mediterranean island environments
This study investigates prehistoric human adaptation to small Mediterranean island environments through the archaeobotanical and zooarchaeological analysis of two key sites: Piano dei Cardoni (Ustica, Neolithic) and Mursia (Pantelleria, Bronze Age). Both volcanic islands, differing in size, landscape features, and chronology of occupation, offer an ideal framework to explore how early human communities managed limited insular resources, navigated…
When smoke is in the air
Ocupaciones efímeras en cueva desde la protohistoria hasta la actualidad
Las cavidades han sido lugares utilizados reiteradamente a lo largo de la historia y con distintas funcionalidades tal y como evidencia la tipología de los restos arqueológicos hallados. Así, la presencia de materiales arqueológicos en cuevas y abrigos desde la protohistoria hasta la actualidad está documentada en un buen número de yacimientos, pero pocos han sido objeto de estudio específico. La baja tasa de sedimentación y la escasez del regist…
Forests and fields in the pre-pyreneean neolithic and early Bronze Age based on fumier archaeobotanical records
Pyre wood fuel and food remains in a necropolis of Barcino (Barcelona, NE Iberian Peninsula)
Living on the edge
Extensive research carried out during the last 30 years in the lowermost foothills of the Southern Pyrenees has revealed the significance of this area for studying Neanderthal lifestyle and settlement histories in the Iberian Peninsula. With a large number of cave and rock shelter sites, broad-ranging chronologies, and relatively well-known sedimentation rates and environmental conditions, this enclave continues to improve our knowledge about Nea…
The geoarchaeology, chronology and environment of Lusakert-1, a Late Middle Palaeolithic rockshelter (Kotayk Province, Armenia)
Lusakert-1 (LKT-1) is a key site in any discussion of the Palaeolithic of the Armenian Highlands. This is in large part because of a long-running campaign of excavation in the 1970–1980s which recovered an obsidian artefact assemblage that was then interpreted as spanning the Lower–Upper Palaeolithic. Our reinvestigation in 2008–2012 revealed evidence of occupation in the interior of the LKT-1 rockshelter comprising spreads of ash, obsidian artef…
Site Settlement Patterns During MIS 3 in the Southeast of France
Cal Sitjo
Cal Sitjo is a new archaeological sequence located in a chert-rich region of the NE Iberian Peninsula, in the town of Sant Martí de Tous (Anoia, Barcelona). The area has undergone significant anthropisation and several archaeological sites (e.g., Vilars de Tous), quarries and workshops for the exploitation of chert (e.g., La Guinardera) have been documented, corresponding to different periods. The abundance of chert made this region an almost obl…
Animal husbandry in Sicilian prehistory
Starting in the mid-6th millennium cal BCE, Neolithic groups occupied the midlands of Sicily. The economy of these groups was based primarily on livestock farming. Archaeological and archaeobotanical data indicate an intensification of livestock practices during the Early Bronze Age, leading to a change in the landscape in the form of more open forests. The Vallone Inferno rockshelter in the Madonie massif is one of the few sites that has been sy…
Multi-site archaeobotanical analysis reveals wood-fuel supply, woodland impact and land use around Roman urban centres
Archaeobotany in an era of change and challenge
Apart from helping us understand past communities' response to climate change and their plant management resilience mechanisms, archaeobotanical information may also serve as a basis to rethink our economic system and implement new solutions to current challenges (e.g. re-adopt forgotten crops or implement circular economy models). Already fragile by nature, the integrity of archaeobotanical heritage is affected by current climate events, such as…

Spearheading into the Neolithic
This article presents a summary of new evidence for the Mesolithic in the Dinaric Alps of Montenegro. The region is one of the best areas in south-eastern Europe to study Early Holocene foragers and the nature of the transition to Neolithic lifeways at the end of the seventh and the beginning of the sixth millennium cal bc thanks to the existence of biodiverse landscapes and numerous karstic features. We argue that harpoons found at two different…
Short human occupations in the Middle Palaeolithic level i of the Abric Roman rock-shelter (Capellades, Barcelona, Spain)
Sleeping Activity Area within the Site Structure of Archaic Human Groups
The identification of different prehistoric activity areas and Neanderthal behavior is one of the main research goals at the Abric Romaní site, which is a well-preserved and microstratified Mousterian archaeological site. A conspicuous occupation surface excavated in level N yielded a remarkably preserved set of aligned combustion activity areas in the inner zone of the living surface. This set of combustion activity areas suggests analogy with s…
Palaeoecology of Neanderthals during Dansgaard–Oeschger cycles in northeastern Iberia (Abric Romaní)
Neandertal Behavior at the Middle Palaeolithic Site of Abric Romaní, Capellades, Spain
This paper synthesizes the work carried out since 1983 at the Middle Palaeolithic site of Abric Romaní, Spain, reconstructing Neandertal behavioral and settlement patterns. The sedimentary features of this site give a high resolution of prehistoric occupational events. Large surface excavation (over 300 sq m) has been used to obtain a detailed picture of intrasite settlement patterns. The reconstruction of activities and their spatial and tempora…

Hearth-Related Wood Remains from Abric Romaní Layer M (Capellades, Spain)
The tufa sedimentary environment of the Middle Paleolithic layers of Abric Romaní has resulted in particularly well-preserved wood remains. Level M, dated to ca. 50 kyr bp, has yielded a very well preserved assemblage, including 114 wood imprints. The present study is based on the morphological characterization of the wood remains, their taphonomic analysis, and the spatial distribution of hearth-related assemblages. This evidence allows discussi…

Los datos preliminares sobre las ocupaciones de la Edad del Bronce señalan el uso de la cueva como redil, zona de hábitat y espacio sepulcral. Durante su uso como redil se llevó a cabo…

Holocene vegetational landscapes of NE Iberia
This paper presents the anthracological results of Cova de la Guineu. This cave, which is located at the NE of the Iberian Peninsula, has provided charcoal samples from the early Neolithic to the Iberian period enabling the identification of different phases on the basis of flora assemblage interpretation. The results show how Mediterranean forests have been present since the early Holocene stages. At the early phases of the sequence the assembla…

Late Mesolithic lifeways and deathways at Vlasac (Serbia)
Recent excavations (2006–2009) at the Mesolithic-Neolithic site of Vlasac in the Danube Gorges region of the north-central Balkans have focused on a reevaluation of previous conclusions about site formation processes, stratigraphy, chronology, and the nature of occupation. Mostly Late Mesolithic remains had been encountered in the preserved portion of the site, but, for the first time, in a restricted zone of the excavated area, vertical stratifi…

An Early Pleistocene hominin mandible from Atapuerca-TD6, Spain
We present a mandible recovered in 2003 from the Aurora Stratum of the TD6 level of the Gran Dolina site (Sierra de Atapuerca, northern Spain). The specimen, catalogued as ATD6-96, adds to the hominin sample recovered from this site in 1994–1996, and assigned to Homo antecessor . ATD6-96 is the left half of a gracile mandible belonging to a probably female adult individual with premolars and molars in place. This mandible shows a primitive struct…

Este trabajo presenta la estructura tecnológica observada en los niveles B y Bb (Boreal) de La Cativera, donde se observa una dualidad entre explotaciones laminares simplificadas y una producción de lascas cortas normalizadas. Una nueva datación inédita refuerza la posición cronológica de estos niveles pese a que las estrategias de talla de los mismos difieren significativamente de las documentadas en yacimientos sincrónicos.
