A Community in Life and Death: The Late Neolithic Megalithic Tomb at Alto de Reinoso (Burgos, Spain)

2016

The analysis of the human remains from the megalithic tomb at Alto de Reinoso represents the widest integrative study of a Neolithic collective burial in Spain. Combining archaeology, osteology, molecular genetics and stable isotope analysis (87Sr/86Sr, δ15N, δ13C) it provides a wealth of information on the minimum number of individuals, age, sex, body height, pathologies, mitochondrial DNA profiles, kinship relations, mobility, and diet. The grave was in use for approximately one hundred years around 3700 cal BC, thus dating from the Late Neolithic of the Iberian chronology. At the bottom of the collective tomb, six complete and six partial skeletons lay in anatomically correct positions. …

La prehistoria de Ibiza y Formentera: estado actual de la investigación

1988

The study of the prehistory of Ibiza and Formentera, the two small islands that form the Pityussae sub-group within the Balearic archipelago, began a few years ago as a consequence of the discovery and excavation of the megalithic chamber tomb of a Ca Na Costa on Formentera. Before then, prehistorians were still in doubt as to whether these islands had been occupied before the Phoenician colonisation. Many sites have come to light in the last decade, allowing us to present for the first time a general survey of the prehistoric settlement of the islands. Nevertheless, many problems are still unsolved, and new excavations are needed to establish the apparently complex cultural sequence, which…

Enterramientos prehistóricos en fosa en el entorno megalítico de Los Molares (margen izquierda de la cuenca del Bajo Guadalquivir)

2020

El artículo presenta nuevos datos procedentes de excavaciones recientes en Los Molares (provincia de Sevilla), en el entorno próximo de los dólmenes de El Palomar y Cañada Real. Los datos fueron obtenidos durante los trabajos arqueológicos previos a la urbanización de la finca de El Palomar, localizándose varias fosas rellenas con materiales prehistóricos, tres de ellas con restos humanos. Se presentan sus contextos arqueológicos y restos recuperados, así como los resultados de los análisis radiocarbónicos efectuados. Se realiza una discusión sobre las implicaciones de estos nuevos hallazgos en relación con el entorno megalítico conocido y con el registro funerario del IV milenio cal BC en …

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…

Les Hypogées d'Arles-Fontvieille et leur environnement : nouvelles perceptions, nouvelles perspectives

2014

Due to their unique architecture and the exceptional dimensions of the largest monument in the group, the Arles-Fontvieille hypogea are among the most remarkable megalithic monuments in Europe and the western Mediterranean region. A collective research program was launched in 2013 to study these well-known monuments which have, paradoxically, been the subject of relatively few field studies since the 19th century. The research program consisted of an inventory and analysis of the grave goods and associated artefacts, as well as a number of field studies providing an improved archaeological context of a megalithic group too often thought of only in terms of funerary monuments. Various traces…

Il mare e la città. Cefalù e il Parco delle mura megalitiche di Pasquale Culotta, Giuseppe Leone e Tania Culotta.

2019

Il Mediterraneo è una delle fonti dell’architettura tout court ed è all’origine della storia dell’abitare del Vecchio Mondo. Al ruolo costante e di fondazione del Mare Nostrum si collega, diversi millenni dopo, quello avuto come impulso all’architettura contemporanea e, in particolare, al Movimento Moderno. Su tale imprescindibile rapporto si innesta una specifica questione relativa alle città costiere e al modo in cui queste abbiano concretamente declinato l’interazione con il mare. Se l’arco cronologico si restringe dal secondo dopoguerra ad oggi, molti di questi rapporti sono occasioni mancate, incontri distratti, dove le coste, al pari dei fondi agricoli, sono state considerate, in modo…

Aspects de la gestion des dolmens et des tombes collectives actuels dans les sociétés de l’île de Sumba (Indonésie)

2021

L’article présente une étude ethnoarchéologique dont l’objectif est de cerner les principales caractéristiques de la pratique de la tombe collective dans les sociétés traditionnelles de l’île de Sumba (Indonésie) et de montrer comment les éléments recueillis peuvent nous conduire à modifier notre manière d’appréhender les tombes collectives du Néolithique européen. Les sociétés sélectionnées sont les dernières au monde à construire des monuments mégalithiques dans le but d’en faire des tombes collectives. La maîtrise de l’arrière-plan social et religieux et une connaissance du vécu subjectif des individus impliqués constituent ici les principaux atouts de la démarche ethnoarchéologique. Dan…
