Significance The production of purposely made painted or engraved designs on cave walls is recognized as a major cognitive step in human evolution, considered exclusive to modern humans. Here we present the first known example an abstract pattern by Neanderthals, from Gorham’s Cave Gibraltar. It consists deeply impressed cross-hatching carved into bedrock older than 39 cal kyr. engraving was before accumulation Mousterian layer IV. Most lines composing design were repeatedly and carefully...
Excellent indicators of technology, social organization, exchange patterns, and even beliefs, beads are a topic research in their own right. Findings made between 2010 2011 at the Montelirio tholos burial, part Valencina Copper Age mega-site, south-western Spain, revealed what amounts to largest single-burial ever-documented assemblage beads. Furthermore, were unparalleled beaded attires worn by some people buried grave, mostly females. A multi-analytical study undertaken over past 5...
The great site of Valencina de la Concepción, near Seville in the lower Guadalquivir valley southwest Spain, is presented context debate about nature Copper Age society southern Iberia as a whole. Many aspects layout, use, character and development remain unclear, just there are major unresolved questions kind represented Iberia, from late fourth to third millennium cal BC. This paper discusses 178 radiocarbon dates, 17 excavated sectors within c. 450 ha site, making it best dated later...
River mouths act as containers for pollution episodes that have occurred in their drainage basins over time. The estuary of the Tinto is currently one most polluted areas world, due to past and recent mining industrial activities. This communication studies concentrations seven strategic minerals a sediment core obtained middle this river. Holocene geochemical record has allowed us distinguish four contamination: an initial acid rock during MIS-1 transgression three anthropogenic ones first...
This review analyses the ostracod record in Holocene tsunami deposits, using an overview of 2004 Indian Ocean impact on its recent populations and associated tsunamigenic together with results from numerous investigations other sequences. Different features such as variability local assemblages, population density, species diversity, age structure (e.g., percentages adults juvenile stages) or taphonomical signatures suggest that these microorganisms may be included amongst most promising...
La Pastora tholos is the most complete and characteristic megalithic monument of Valencina de la Concepción-Castilleja Guzmán mega-site. This was built using three types rock, each with different functions coming from places: Paleozoic quartzarenite, granite, Tertiary calcareous sandstone. A detailed petrological study rocks outcrops similar in surroundings has been carried out, locating possible source areas at least 30 km to N for 15 S Therefore, community that a high knowledge nature by,...
A regressive sequence was determined in the late Holocene evolution of southwestern Donana National Park (SW Spain), based on a multidisciplinary study sediments obtained drill core. In an initial phase (> cal. 2400 years BP), shallow coastal lagoon with partial marine connection occupied this area, progressive transition from subtidal to supratidal conditions. The following (cal. 2400-2350 BP) is characterized by tsunami, deposition upper chenier. This sedimentological layer ridge...
Evidence of the AD 1755 tsunami consisting same type accretions produced by re-deposition earlier sediments, has been recorded at three different height along coast Gibraltar: Along a shallow sandy shore, wave reached run-up 2–3 m, whereas steep, cliff–lined shores (Rosia Bay) it surpassed 5 m. An overwash deposit was also identified bottom lagoon (The Inundation), 0.5 m b.s.l., on isthmus that joins Rock with mainland. Southern submerged platforms (Vladi's Reef) were affected erosional...
Abstract The geoarchaeological study focuses on the lithological characterization and provenance determination of rocks El Pozuelo dolmens. difficulty identifying volcanic in intensely altered deformed environment Iberian Pyrite Belt has required implementation a research methodology combining archaeological geological analysis megaliths area surrounding Los Llanetes group. A total 29 thin sections 14 geochemical analyses (ICP-AES, ICP-MS REE) have been carried out samples from dolmens...
Abstract Selective principal components analysis (SPCA) has been applied to highly- and/or little-correlated subgroups of bands. Its usefulness was demonstrated in two ways. First, the final result is a false colour composition based on first order component each highly correlated subgroup bands, resulting image containing more than 95 per cent total variance six TM bands used. Secondly, second pairs will show information that unique for band. Both types have characterize geomorphological...
