The genomic history of Iberian horses since the last Ice Age.
Garrido, Jaime Lira; Tressières, Gaétan; Chauvey, Lorelei; Schiavinato, Stéphanie; Calvière-Tonasso, Laure; Seguin-Orlando, Andaine; Southon, JohnHorses have inhabited Iberia (present-day Spain and Portugal) since the Middle Pleistocene, shaping a complex history in the region. Iberia has been proposed as a potential domestication centre and is renowned for producing world-class bloodlines. Here, we generate genome-wide sequence data from 87 ancient horse specimens (median coverage = 0.97X) from Iberia and the broader Mediterranean to reconstruct their g...

Álvarez-Fernández, Esteban; Martín-Jarque, Sergio; Portero, Rodrigo; Vadillo Conesa, Margarita; Martínez-Villa, Alberto; Teresa Aparicio, MªThe archaeological investigations carried out in the last twenty years in the Lower Valley of the River Gliena (Asturias, central part of northern Spain) have documented different prehistoric sites, particularly with Middle and Upper Palaeolithic occupations. This paper presents the first results of the archaeological excavation carried out in the cave of La Cuevona de Avin. From the systematic study of the bio...

Álvarez-Fernández, Esteban; Andrés, Miriam; Aparicio, Ma Teresa; Elorza, Mikelo; Gabriel, Sonia; García-Ibaibarriaga, Naroa; Murelaga, XabierCova Rosa is an archaeological site in Asturias, Spain, excavated by Francisco Jordá Cerdá in 1958, 1959 and 1964. Later, the same archaeologist and Alejandro Gómez Fuentes carried out an excavation from 1975 to 1979. They documented two levels, named Cova Rosa A and Cova Rosa B. The archaeological material resulting from this excavation has remained practically unpublished. This paper presents the biotic remai...
