Detailed investigation of the Alpha Building of Puig Morter in Son
Ferragut on the island of Mallorca provided the opportunity to
study not only a domestic setting dating to between c.700 and 500
BC, but also to build a picture of different social activities and
gender relations during this period. This large volume presnts a
description of the building itself before looking at the activities
taking place within it, such as the slaughter, butchery and cooking
of meat, the preparation of other foodstuffs, storage and domestic
production of ceramics, cloth and personal items. Speculation is
then made of the presence of two differentiated social groups who
have practised shared and separate social practices, some of which
may be determined by gender. The conclusion indicates that this
remains work in progress. Spanish text; English summary.
El Calvari cemetery (El Molar, Priorat, Tarragona) has one of the
largest series of cremation burials in the Northeast of the Iberian
Peninsula. Both its ceramic urns and metal grave goods have been
used to suggest a new chronological and cultural framework for the
Urnfield culture in the Iberian Peninsula. The whole set of
funerary ceramics recorded at the cemetery and largely unpublished
since its excavation is presented in this book. These data together
with metal artefact associations are used for reviewing preexisting
cultural sequences and, furthermore, they serve as the basis for a
new interpretaion of social relationships among the communities of
the Ebro valley in the first half of the 1st millennium bc. Spanish
with English summary.
