Dating the Tejo river lower terraces in the Ródão area (Portugal) to assess the...

Cunha, Pedro P.; Martins, António A.; Huot, Sébastien; Murray, Andrew; Raposo, Luís

The Tejo river is one of the major drainages in Iberian Peninsula; it is a long-lived system (ca. 3.4 Ma) and provides an archive of long-term landscape development and environmental change controlled by tectonics, climate and eustasy. The most upstream Portuguese reach of the Tejo river, ~ 200 km from the Atlantic coast, shows evidence for five fluvial terraces (T1 to T5) with elevations reaching more than 120...

Oosterbeck, L.; Grimaldi, S.; Rosina, P.; Cura, S.; Cunha, P. P.; Martins, A. A.

Archaeological evidence for the earliest human presence in western Iberia is summarised and discussed. Western Iberia is geologically characterised by magmatic and metamorphic rocks (Hesperian Massif) but also by siliciclastic and carbonate Mesozoic and Cenozoic formations. The geological context affects the distribution of Pleistocene archaeological sites, as the most of the archaeological evidence known today...

Martins, A. A.; Cunha, Pedro P.; Rosina, P.; Oosterbeck, L.; Cura, S.; Grimaldi, S.; Gomes, J.; Murray, A. S.; Matos, J.

This paper aims to provide insight into human occupation and landscape change during the Pleistocene in a central area of the Lower Tejo basin (Portugal). Detailed geomorphological mapping, coupled with lithostratigraphy, sedimentology and luminescence dating, supports the identification of a complete terrace staircase sequence. It consists of six gravely terraces located below the culminant (Pliocene) basin un...
