This book presents an interdisciplinary study of the El Mirador
cave located on the Atapuerca karstic system, one of the longest
Pleistocene and Holocene archaeopaleontological deposits in Iberia.
This book presents the results including new unpublished and
published data to discuss different aspects related to the
prehistoric herders and farmers that occupied this territory.
Divided into four parts, the book covers site presentation and the
paleoenvironmental reconstruction covering a chronological span
between 7060 +/- 40-3040 +/- 40 yrs. The history of the excavation
and the excavation methodology is detailed in this part including
new unpublished recording techniques using 3D scanning and
photogrammetry and a very meticulous sampling strategy. The book
presents formation processes of the deposit which are key to
understanding the successive occupations of the caves regarding its
use as sheepfold cave as well as human remains that are part of
different funerary contexts in the cave. In the last section, the
book covers material culture found in the cave including lithic
tools and pottery. This interdisciplinary work is of interest to
scholars in anthracology, zooarchaeology, paleoanthropology, lithic
technology, and experimental archaeology.
