The Late Bronze Age was an important phase in European Prehistory but our understanding of its regional dynamics is unequal. Relevant knowledge of the peopling and material culture of Southwestern Iberia between 1170 and 730 BCE exists, but the exploitation and management of animals remain largely uncharacterized. We generally lack the taphonomical data that could allow for an in-depth understanding of faunal a...
We present the results of the archaeological research at the tholos do Monge (Sintra Mountains) in the year 2021 and the research history of this monument for a better understanding of the most recent information. This paper aims to recreate research into this prehistoric tomb, integrating it into the megalithic paradigms prevailing in the 21st century, also inserting it into a wider program for enhancement of ...

A comparative study is presented of the results of the excavation of the prehistoric monument of Praia das Maçãs obtained in 1961, based on the existing documentation kept in archives and that which has since been published, with those obtained in the archaeological intervention carried between 2020 and 2022. The study carried out resulted in several new conclusions that allowed us to characterize with greater ...

Domesticated dogs have been present in the Iberian Peninsula long before other domesticated species, back to the late Palaeolithic period. Their origin is still uncertain, but dogs were already well established during the Chalcolithic period (ca. 5000–4000 BP). This study employed a multidisciplinary approach comprising osteometric, radiographic and palaeogenomic analyses to characterize Chalcolithic Iberian Ca...
