The extent and nature of symbolic behavior among Neandertals are obscure. Although evidence for Neandertal body ornamentation has been proposed, all cave painting attributed to modern humans. Here we present dating results three sites in Spain that show art emerged Iberia substantially earlier than previously thought. Uranium-thorium (U-Th) dates on carbonate crusts overlying paintings provide minimum ages a red linear motif La Pasiega (Cantabria), hand stencil Maltravieso (Extremadura),...
La Serena region is a large plateau with open landscapes bounded in the south by mountain chain formed Benquerencia, Tiros and Rinconada Sierras. There are more than 300 painted engraved sites region.Cueva Grande, Cueva de En medio Pequeña three Schematic rock art shelters located municipality of Benquerencia la Serena, Badajoz, Spain. Over their panels have been documented hundred schematic figures (anthropomorphic figures, eye-shape symbols) (Neolithic – Copper Age).Paintings monochromatic...
This paper explores the processes involved in production of prehistoric paintings using inorganic pigmentation. The focus for discussion involves a number rock-shelter sites that contain rock art within western part Iberian Peninsula, with particular reference to Schematic art. A direct date cannot be obtained on is made pigments. However, sampling and subsequent analysis has clearly shown pigments were produced tried tested recipes use sometimes organic binders. will explore chemical...
El proyecto de investigación llevado a cabo en la cueva Maltravieso, no sólo ha supuesto un notable incremento el inventario representaciones artísticas -manos, zoomorfos e ideomorfos- conocidos sino que aporta importantes novedades, respecto al momento cronológico realización las distintas manifestaciones, fases ejecución, técnica empleada elaboración figuras y tipología los motivos. Otra novedad importante derivada nuestra investigación, sido constatación inexistencia mutilaciones manos....
Resumen: El objetivo de este trabajo es dar a conocer una nueva estela guerrero recientemente recuperada en el término Cabeza del Buey (Badajoz) y contextualizarla poblamiento la Sierra Tiros, un escenario especial significación por su valor estratégico las comunicaciones entre Córdoba Badajoz.Así, tanto esta como otras ya conocidas entorno vienen jalonar espacio habitado prehistoria reciente, que cuenta con algunos asentamientos Edad Bronce gran número manifestaciones pictóricas ponen...
This work presents a review of the rock art conserved at site located in autonomous community Andalusia, known preceding literature as Las Estrellas cave (Castellar de la Frontera, Cádiz). is large open-air rocky shelter, which various schematic style pictographs were found, early years this century. During recent visit to site, existence an important Palaeolithic figurative set was also noted, includes representations fauna and small series outlines hands. article deals with generic...
Postes Cave in SW Spain (Extremadura) displays a Holocene archaeostratigraphic sequence radiocarbon-dated to between c. 8.5–4 cal kyr BP (Mesolithic-Chalcolithic). The sediments collected at two areas within the cave yielded small mammal remains belonging eleven species of rodents, 'insectivores', lagomorphs and chiropterans. This fossil assemblage is one few known date southwest Iberian Peninsula. Preliminary taphonomic analysis previously published data suggest that were accumulated by...
Depictions of “chariots” could be considered almost exceptional in the field schematic rock art Iberian Peninsula. Their presence usually generates some discussions among researchers who are dedicated to study this artistic cycle extent.
Monfragüe National Park (Cáceres) preserved a very important schematic rock art complex with more than hundred shelters postpalaeolithic paintings and engravings. In this paper we'll provide an advance of our last research campaigns conclusions carried out in the Arroyo Barbaón sector (Serradilla). We have proceeded to digital documentation 29 shelter figures. Furthermore, through archaeological excavation inside Cueva del Sapo, which provided some pottery fragments stone tools as well...
Abstract The Mesolithic faunal assemblage from Cueva de Los Postes (Badajoz, Spain) is presented and discussed. remains different stratigraphic units spatially associated with the funerary use of cave or preceded them were analyzed. zooarchaeological record dominated by leporids, generally rabbit but also hare, scarce mustelids, undetermined birds. Results indicate that these animals are not human cave. relevance carnivore damage points to an exogenous origin for leporid accumulation. It...
The geomorphology and stratigraphy of massive debris flows on the Eastern Andean Cordillera, Colombia, indicate two distinct deposits can be recognized. lower Chinauta deposit covers 14 km2 has a thickness ∼60 m, whereas upper Fusagasugá 20 ∼20 m. section consists matrix-supported gravels, with isolated boulders to moderately bedded structure local inverse grading. displays sequences inversely graded, clast-supported >2 m in axial length, capped by massive, fine gravels. latter are dissected...
