La Neolitización en Cantabria
2019
El territorio actual de la región de Cantabria se corresponde fundamentalmente con el sector central de la Cornisa Cantábrica, además de los valles de Campóo y Valderredible y como la práctica totalidad de trabajos de síntesis realizados tanto en el País Vasco, como en Asturias se circuscriben a sus límites regionales se ha convertido en un importante vacío de información para el estudio del proceso de neolitización en la Cornisa Cantábrica, la poca atención que se ha dispensado a los datos arqueológicos regional origina que las teorías generales sobre el proceso, o los procesos de neolitización en la Cornisa Cantábrica tengan serias lagunas. Con este breve artículo pretendemos contribuir a…
Causes of the genetic architecture of south-west European high mountain disjuncts
2008
Background: Postglacial climatic warming in south-western Europe and the retreat of cold-adapted species into higher elevations, starting in the Sierra Nevada and proceeding northwards to the Pyrenees and Alps, should have resulted in a pattern of ‘successive vicariance’. Alternatively, long-distance dispersal might explain the extant distribution pattern of mountain species in this region. Aims: Here, we report an investigation of two alpine plants, Saxifraga oppositifolia and S. stellaris, which co-occur in the Sierra Nevada, the Pyrenees, and the south-western Alps/Massif Central. Our aim was to distinguish between (successive) vicariance and long-distance dispersal as alternative explan…
Seed germination reports of high mountain species native to Mount Etna (Sicily)
2020
The germination ability of five endemic species from the high mountain belt of Mt. Etna were studied; they are Astragalus siculus, Erysimum etnense, Senecio squalidus subsp. aethnensis, Silene italica subsp. sicula, and Tanacetum vulgare subsp. siculum. Mature seeds were collected in the field, within an elevation range of 1700–2000 m a.s.l. Different experimental conditions were tested and the best methods with optimal germination results are provided and compared for each species. First germination records are given for 4 out of 5 of the investigated taxa.
Beyond Hunting Camps: Early Holocene Occupations in High Cantabrian Mountains (Spain)
1998
En la comunicación se presentan los resultados de las excavaciones en el abrigo de La Calvera (Camaleño, Cantabria) incluyendo un conjunto de nuevas dataciones radiocarbónicas y se hace una reflexión sobre la ocupación de las montañas cantábricas al comienzo del Holoceno. In the communication the results of the excavations in La Calvera rock shelter (Camaleño, Cantabria) are presented, including a set of new radiocarbonic dates and a reflection is made on the occupation of the Cantabrian mountains at the beginning of the Holocene.
