La arqueología neolítica en el Abrigo de Penedo dos Mouros (Gouveia, Portugal): la evidencia de prácticas de trashumancia primitiva en la Sierra de la Estrella

Zephyrus, lxxix, enero-junio 2017, pp. 19-38

Ubicado en las estribaciones del sector no de la Sierra de la Estrella (provincia de Beira Alta, en el centro-norte de Portugal), el Abrigo de Penedos dos Mouros ha revelado una sucesión de tres horizontes arqueoló- gicos distintos, asignables al Neolítico Antiguo evolucionado y Neolítico Medio, coincidiendo así, parcialmen- te, con el inicio del Megalitismo regional. El hallazgo de un número limitado de restos de caprino –al menos una posible oveja– entre un largo espectro de especies –cerdo, conejo, liebre, lince ibérico y sapo– convierte este yacimiento en el más antiguo de la región con evidencia directa de mantenimiento de ganado. Vasos de pequeño tamaño, uso oportunista de materias primas líticas locales, acompañado de uso extensivo de sílex exógeno y baja densidad de artefactos, indican una estrategia de movilidad residencial en la misma línea de evidencias similares observadas en otros yacimientos en Beira Alta. Dadas reivindicaciones anteriores de trashumancia vertical entre la meseta serrana –en verano– y las planicies bajas –en invierno–, esta hipótesis es discutida –y refutada– con base en el análisis espacial de yacimientos neolíticos, caracterización económica del periodo, orografía local y restricciones bioclimáticas. Palabras clave: Neolítico; Beira Alta; Megalitismo; sistemas de asentamiento; ganadería; pastoreo.

‘Biografía’ de un monumento megalítico: fases de uso y clausura en el dolmen de El Teriñuelo (Aldeavieja de Tormes, Salamanca)

Zephyrus, lxxix, enero-junio 2017, pp. 39-61

El dolmen de El Teriñuelo, ubicado en el municipio de Aldeavieja de Tormes, forma parte de uno de los focos megalíticos más nutridos y mejor documentados de la provincia de Salamanca. Este sepulcro de corredor ha sido objeto de numerosas intervenciones arqueológicas que, desde fechas anteriores a 1930, han ido des- granando partes de su historia. Los resultados de la última campaña de excavación, que fue llevada a cabo por los firmantes de este artículo en 2005, han permitido completar su secuencia de utilización, gracias al hallazgo de nuevas evidencias de su uso y, en particular, de su clausura. A lo largo de este trabajo, se presentarán las distintas manifestaciones arqueológicas de este singular evento ritual, dentro del contexto de las distintas fases de ocupación del dolmen y partiendo de un enfoque biográfico que permita mostrar la compleja sucesión de prácticas que se han ido enmascarando y superponiendo a lo largo de toda la ‘vida’ de este importante centro funerario y ceremonial. Palabras clave: Megalitismo; Valle del Duero; ‘vidas megalíticas’; rituales de clausura; reutilización; Campaniforme.

Rasgos básicos de la extracción de variscita en Palazuelo de las Cuevas (Zamora)

Zephyrus, lxxix, enero-junio 2017, pp. 63-79

Desde que se dio a conocer en 1970, Palazuelo de las Cuevas (Zamora) se convirtió en ‘la fuente de variscita’ para el no ibérico. Estudios geológicos posteriores y hallazgos casuales han demostrado que este mineral posee una distribución mucho más amplia, incluyendo otras localidades de Zamora, Norte de Portugal

(Tras-os-Montes), el o de León (Bierzo) y del e y so de Galicia (Ourense y Pontevedra). Sin embargo, nuestro conocimiento sobre la minería prehistórica de este mineral es escaso todavía, tal vez debido al pequeño tamaño de las venas que, además, se encuentran ampliamente dispersas, lo que probablemente ha tenido una fuerte influencia en la naturaleza de las labores de extracción y su visibilidad arqueológica. Con el objetivo de evaluar los rasgos básicos, en cuanto a naturaleza e intensidad, de los trabajos de extracción en el área de Las Cercas/ Teso del Diablo, hemos hecho uso de datos lidar de alta resolución y herramientas sig para obtener una imagen más nítida de la superficie del terreno, lo que nos ha permitido identificar la enorme entidad de las excavaciones llevadas a cabo en el pasado. Finalmente, hacemos unas breves consideraciones sobre la cronología y pautas de distribución de la variscita en el área occidental de la Península Ibérica. Palabras clave: no ibérico; fosfatos alumínicos; mina; lidar; sig.

Situación de tumbas con ajuares de objetos cotidianos en algunas necrópolis celtibéricas de los ss. iv a ii a. C.

Zephyrus, lxxix, enero-junio 2017, pp. 81-101

En algunas necrópolis del ámbito céltico hispano se hallan ajuares con elementos utilizados en la vida cotidiana. Piezas que nos remiten al hogar y a actividades productivas y/o económicas. Son objetos que en las tumbas se asocian a armas y/o a elementos de la indumentaria, formando conjuntos que acompañaban al difunto al Más Allá. Entre los relacionados con el hogar incluimos trébedes, parrillas o asadores, cuya presencia en ajuares funerarios se interpreta en relación con la celebración de banquetes fúnebres. Son elementos de aparición esporádica en el ámbito celtibérico. También se documentan útiles asociados a actividades agrícolas, ganaderas y artesanales, en ámbitos celti- béricos. Su presencia también es escasa, pero ofrece un variado repertorio, entre ellos hoces, podaderas, hachas, tijeras y leznas o punzones. En este trabajo, se analiza su presencia y distribución espacial dentro de algunas necrópolis celtibéricas, para comprobar si es posible dilucidar si este tipo de objetos en los ajuares proporcionan información sobre la vida y espiritualidad de los difuntos. Para ello, y a modo de ensayo, se parte de los datos conocidos de una selección de necrópolis celtibéricas que publican los planos de distribución de las tumbas: Las Madrigueras, Riba de Saelices, La Yunta, El Altillo de Cerropozo de Atienza, La Mercadera y Numancia. Palabras clave: ritual funerario prerromano; organización de tumbas; útiles para el fuego; útiles agrícolas; jefaturas; sacerdocio.

La identificación del catastro rural romano a través de losfundi . Una metodología aplicada en el ager Iliberritanus

Zephyrus, lxxix, enero-junio 2017, pp. 103-125

El estudio de los paisajes rurales antiguos se ha visto enriquecido por una mayor comprensión de las villae y otras formas de asentamiento rural. Estas instalaciones agrícolas son, en muchos casos, el único registro ar- queológico visible de una realidad normalmente perdida del paisaje agrario romano: los fundi. En este trabajo proponemos una metodología para identificar catastros romanos, usando las variables cuantitativas y cualitati- vas que las villae ofrecen: visibilidad, prominencia topográfica, cronología, orientación, distancia entre asenta- mientos, cercanía a ejes teóricos, etc. Para ello, se examina el caso de estudio del territorio asignado a Florentia Iliberritana, la ciudad de Granada en época romana. Como resultado de la investigación llevada a cabo en las últimas décadas, se ha identificado una alta densidad de instalaciones agropecuarias en el área periurbana, cuyo momento fundacional coincide con la adquisición de estatuto municipal por parte de la urbs. La aplicación de las variables anteriormente citadas, junto con las metodologías consolidadas en la historiografía, como el análisis regresivo del paisaje y el estudio de documentación cartográfica y archivística, ha permitido identificar una centuriatio de módulo de 20 x 20 actus con divisiones internas de 10 x 10 actus. Palabras clave: Florentia Iliberritana; paisaje agrario; Sistemas de Información Geográfica; catastro;villae .

Pinturas romanas procedentes de Caesaraugusta (Zaragoza): un taller en el valle medio del Ebro

Zephyrus, lxxix, enero-junio 2017, pp. 127-148

Los fragmentos de pinturas romanas que presentamos proceden de la excavación realizada en la c/ Dr. Palomar n.º 4; se hallaron fuera de su contexto original, en un depósito secundario, por lo que no es posible conocer la estancia que decoraban. Se han podido recomponer dos conjuntos, cuya decoración se integra en los sistemas compositivos característicos del s. ii d. C. El primero corresponde a una pared de fondo blanco, arti- culada en paneles mediante bandas y filetes rojos y amarillos, que se disponen sobre un zócalo blanco moteado. El segundo conjunto presenta también un zócalo moteado, de fondo rosa, y en la zona media se disponen paneles decorados con imitaciones marmóreas que alternan con columnas. Un tercer grupo, compuesto por

Están realizados por un taller provincial cuya huella se constata en otras ciudades del valle medio del Ebro. Palabras clave: paredes blancas; imitaciones marmóreas; columnas; techo estrellado; larario.

Un titulus pictus con titulatura imperial de Carthago Nova y puntualizaciones a la dinámica urbana de la ciudad a inicios del s. iii d. C.

Zephyrus, lxxix, enero-junio 2017, pp. 149-172

El registro arqueológico y epigráfico deCarthago Nova sugiere un periodo de inestabilidad y regresión de la dinámica urbana de la colonia durante la segunda mitad del s. ii y el iii d. C., seguramente consecuencia de la ralentización de sus bases económicas, el descenso demográfico, el colapso de las instituciones locales y la crisis del evergetismo. El resultado fue un cambio sustancial del paisaje urbano, con el repliegue del espa- cio habitado, la interrupción del hábito epigráfico, el abandono, expolio y reocupación de áreas y edificios públicos, la amortización de barrios domésticos y la falta de mantenimiento de las calles. Ello ha llevado a la crítica a sugerir que desde mediados del s. ii y, sobre todo, en el iii d. C. la ciudad perdió su importancia y fue completamente abandonada. Sin embargo, la constatación reciente de una importante reforma en el Edificio del Atrio (Insula i del Molinete) a inicios del s. iii d. C. y el hallazgo de parte de un titulus pictus con datación consular donde se cita a Heliogábalo y al prefecto del pretorio Adventus permiten en fechar la conclusión de dicha refectio en 218 d. C. y retomar el debate sobre la recesión urbana de los ss. ii-iii d. C., formulando algunas puntualizaciones. Palabras clave: Cartagena; crisis del s. iii; Edificio del Atrio; inscripción pintada; Heliogábalo;Adventus ; evergetismo.

Un nuevo ocultamiento monetario de bronces romano-republicanos y de Castulo en el sur de Hispania: Torre de Benagalbón (Málaga)

Zephyrus, lxxix, enero-junio 2017, pp. 173-195

Durante la campaña de excavaciones arqueológicas de 2003-2004 en la villa romana de la Torre de Bena- galbón (Rincón de la Victoria, Málaga), se localizó un modesto ocultamiento de moneda de bronce integrado por 19 ases y 1 semis romano-republicanos, junto con 9 unidades de la ceca ibérica meridional de Castulo/ Ka.ś.ti.l.o (Cazlona, Jaén). Este hallazgo contribuye al estudio de los ocultamientos mixtos –moneda romana y local– en el s de la Península Ibérica durante la segunda mitad del s. ii a. C. Su singular composición plantea su formación en el distrito minero de Castulo, bien comunicado con el puerto de Malaca por una importante ruta documentada por las fuentes literarias y arqueológicas. Se discute también el prestigio de la moneda oficial romana sobre la local, especialmente después de 146/141 a. C., así como el perfil metrológico de estos ocultamientos y su transformación en el s. i a. C. Palabras clave: Ocultamiento monetario; ases romano-republicanos; Castulo; Malaca; Hispania Ulterior.

Los ‘hallazgos excepcionales’ de Iruña-Veleia (Álava): sintaxis de una falsificación arqueológica

Zephyrus, lxxix, enero-junio 2017, pp. 197-217

En 2006 se dio a conocer el hallazgo de unos ostraca grafiteados con palabras en latín, euskera y dibujos de temática cristiana en las excavaciones realizadas en el yacimiento de Iruña-Veleia (Álava, España) en 2005 y 2006. Posteriormente en 2008 se demostró que tales piezas eran falsificaciones. Este caso, conocido como “caso Iruña-Veleia”, ha sido objeto de algunos estudios parciales, centrados sobre todo en las falsificaciones. Sin embargo, este trabajo analiza este caso desde una perspectiva contextual. Para ello se ha definido previa- mente el patrón habitual de las falsificaciones históricas, al que se ha denominado “sintaxis”. Posteriormente se ha aplicado al caso Iruña-Veleia y se ha observado su evolución en los ámbitos académico, político e institucio- nal y social. En cada uno de ellos esta sintaxis presenta ciertas peculiaridades debido sobre todo al marco social en el que se ha desenvuelto y su vinculación con la identidad nacionalista, tema relacionado con el contenido de las falsificaciones. Sin embargo, no puede concluirse que en este caso la vinculación nacionalista haya sido el motor de la falsificación. Palabras clave: fraude; nacionalismo; País Vasco; medios de comunicación.

Sobre la pregnancia en la utilización del relieve en las cuevas de Bédeilhac (Ariège, Francia) y de El Pindal (Asturias, España)

Zephyrus, lxxix, enero-junio 2017, pp. 221-231

El aprovechamiento de relieves naturales es una característica bien conocida del arte parietal paleolítico, aunque no se le concede generalmente la atención que merece. En esta nota, queremos añadir al repertorio dos ejemplos inéditos que provienen de las cuevas de Bédeilhac (Ariège, Francia) y de El Pindal (Asturias, España). En ambos casos, se trata de relieves ligeramente separados de la pared que fueron acondicionados para repre- sentar cabezas de animales indeterminados. La intervención humana es mínima pues consiste en la adición de un ojo grabado y algunos trazos de pigmento rojo. La similitud de los tratamientos en estas dos cuevas atesti- gua motivaciones compartidas y una comunidad de pensamiento. Así, los relieves utilizados de Bédeilhac y El Pindal se suman a las numerosas convergencias ya conocidas entre ambos sitios, particularmente la presencia de claviformes pirenaicos en El Pindal, y confirman una proximidad cultural muy fuerte entre los Pirineos centrales y el occidente de la región cantábrica durante el Magdaleniense. Palabras-clave: Magdaleniense; Pirineos franceses; Región Cantábrica; intercambios culturales; Psicología de la Forma.

Neolithic archaeology at the Penedo dos Mouros rock-shelter (Gouveia, Portugal) and the issue of primitive transhumance practices in the Estrela Mountain range

Zephyrus, lxxix, January-June 2017, pp. 19-38

Located in the foothills of the north-western sector of the Estrela Mountain (Beira Alta province in central-north Portugal), Penedo dos Mouros Rock-shelter revealed a succession of three distinct archaeological horizons datable to the evolved Early Neolithic and initial Middle Neolithic, thus partially coinciding with the onset of the regional Megalithism. The find of a few caprine remains at least one possible sheep, among a large spectrum of species –swine, rabbit, hare, Iberian lynx and toad–, makes this site the oldest in the region to provide direct evidence for herding practices. Small-sized pots, expedient use of local lithic raw materials together with curated use of exogenous flint, and low density of artefacts indicate a strategy of residential mobility in line with similar evidence observed elsewhere in Beira Alta. Given previous claims of Neolithic vertical transhumance between montane plateaux –in the summer– and lowland plains –in the winter–, this hypothesis is here discussed –and refuted– based on spatial analysis of Neolithic sites, economic characterization of the period and local orographic and bioclimatic constraints. Key words: Neolithic; Beira Alta; Megalithism; settlement systems; livestock; pastoralism.

‘Biography’ of a Megalithic monument: phases of use and closure at the passage grave of El Teriñuelo (Aldeavieja de Tormes, Salamanca)

Zephyrus, lxxix, January-June 2017, pp. 39-61

The passage grave of El Teriñuelo is located in the village of Aldeavieja de Tormes (province of Salaman- ca). It is part of one of the most important and well-documented megalithic areas of inner Iberian Peninsula. Since before 1930 several archaeological works have taken place at this passage grave, thanks to which it has been possible to reconstruct parts of its ‘biography’. The last excavation season, conducted by the authors of this paper in 2005, discovered new evidences of the use sequence and, mainly, of the closure event of this monument. In this paper the archaeological remains of this single ritual ceremony will be presented within the context of the different use phases of the dolmen, with a biographic approach which attempts to deal with the complex superposition of ritual practices of the ‘life-history’ of this important ceremonial and burial centre. Key words: Megalithism; Douro Valley; ‘Megalithic life-histories’; closing rituals; reuse; Bell Beaker.

Basic features of the variscite extraction in Palazuelo de las Cuevas (Zamora)

Zephyrus, lxxix, January-June 2017, pp. 63-79

Ever since first published in 1970, Palazuelo de las Cuevas (Zamora) became known as “the variscite source” for nw Iberia. Later geological surveys and casual finds have shown this mineral to be much more widespread, including other localities in Zamora, Northern Portugal (Tras-os-Montes), Western León (Bier- zo) and Eastern and Southwest Galicia (Ourense and Pontevedra). Still, the evidence of prehistoric mining is little known, perhaps due to the small size of the veins that otherwise are widely scattered, both circumstances

Grave goods tombs situation with everyday objects in some Celtiberian necropolis to the ivth-iind centuries bc

Zephyrus, lxxix, January-June 2017, pp. 81-101

In some Hispanic Celtic cemeteries there are grave good with elements of daily life. Pieces related with home and productive and / or economic activities. They are objects in the tombs associated with weapons and / or items of clothing together into packages that accompanied the deceased to the afterlife. Among those related to home we include trivets, grills or barbecues, whose presence in funerary objects is interpreted in relation with the celebration of funeral feasts. They are elements still sporadic appearance in the Celtiberian territory. They are also documented tools to agricultural, livestock and craft economic activities, in Celtiberian areas. Their presence is also poor, but offers a varied repertoire, including sickles, pruning knives, axes, scissors and awls or punches. In this paper, its presence and spatial distribution within some Celtiberian necropolis is analyzed to see if it is possible to determine whether these objects in the graves provide information on the life and spirituality of the deceased. To do this, and as a test, is part of the known data from a selection of Celtiberian cementerian published floorplans of graves: Las Madrigueras, Riba de Saelices, La Yunta, El Altillo de Cerropozo of Atien- za, La Mercadera and Numancia. Key words: Prerroman funerary ritual; burial organization; fire tools; farm tools; leadership; priesthood.

Detection of Roman rural cadasters through fundi. A methodology applied in ager Iliberritanus

Zephyrus, lxxix, January-June 2017, pp. 103-125

A better understanding of villae and other forms of rural settlement has enriched the study of ancient rural landscapes. These agricultural installations are, in many cases, the only visible archaeological records of a lost reality of the Roman agrarian landscape: the fundi. In this paper, we propose a methodology to identify Roman cadasters, using the qualitative and quantitative variables that villae offer: viewshed, topographic prominence, chronology, orientation, distance between villae, closeness to the theoretical axes etc. To do this, we examine the case-study of the territory assigned to Florentia Iliberritana, the city of Granada in Roman times. As a result of the research carried out in the last decades, it has been identified a high density of agricultural settlements in the peri-urban area, whose construction coincides with the acquisition of municipal status by the urbs. The application of the aforementioned variables, along with established methodologies in historiography as the regressive analysis of the landscape and the study of cartographic and archival documentation as well, has allowed to identified a 20 x 20actus centuriation with internal divisions of 10 x 20 actus. Key words: Florentia Iliberritana; agrarian landscape; Geographical Information Systems; cadastre; villae.

Roman wall paintings from Caesaraugusta (Zaragoza): a workshop in the middle Ebro valley

Zephyrus, lxxix, January-June 2017, pp. 127-148

The paper presents a set of fragments of Roman paintings. The fragments of Roman paintings that we present come from the excavation carried out in the street Dr. Palomar n.º 4. They appeared out of original context, in a secondary deposit, and its relation with a specific space of housing can not be established. However, two walls with the characteristic compositional systems of the 2nd century can be reconstituted. First of them is composed by white wall panels articulated by bands and fillets red and yellow bands and fillets, arranged on a speckled white base. The second set also has a speckled base, with a pink background, and in the middle there are panels decorated with marble imitations alternating with columns. A third group, composed of few fragments that don’t allow a restitution, decorated a starry ceiling on a white background, characteristic of the roofs of thermal and religious buildings, especially lararios. They are made by a provincial workshop whose footprint is found in other cities in the middle valley of the Ebro. Key words: White walls; imitations of marble; columns; star-filled ceiling; domestic shrine.

A titulus pictus with an imperial mention in Carthago Nova and some considerations concerning the urban dynamics of the city in the early 3rd century ad

Zephyrus, lxxix, January-June 2017, pp. 149-172

The archaeological and epigraphic record inCarthago Nova suggests that the colony underwent a period of instability and urban retreat during the second half of the 2nd and the 3rd century ad. This was probably trig- gered by the slowing down of economic activity, a shrinking population and collapse of local institutions and the crisis of evergetism. The process caused a substantial transformation of urban landscapes and a reduction of the size of the inhabited areas; the interruption of the epigraphic habit, the abandonment, looting and reoccupation of public areas and buildings; the pulling down of domestic buildings; and the insufficient maintenance of the urban road network. This has led some specialists to suggest that the city lost importance, and even that it could have been totally abandoned during the second half of the 2nd and, especially, the 3rd century ad. The recent discovery of the substantial transformation of the Atrium Building (Insula i Molinete) in the early 3rd century ad, and of a titulus pictus which mentions the consuls for the year, Heliogabalus and the prefect of the praetorium Adventus, which dates the final date for therefectio in 218 ad, resituates the debate around the retreat of the urban centre in the 2nd and 3rd centuries ad. Key words: Cartagena; crisis 3rd century; Atrium Building; painted inscription; Heliogabalus; Adventus; evergetism.

A new Republican Coin Hoard with Roman asses and coinage of Castulo bronzes from Southern Hispania: Torre de Benagalbón (Málaga)

Zephyrus, lxxix, January-June 2017, pp. 173-195

During the excavations in the Roman villa of Torre de Benagalgón (Rincón de la Victoria, Málaga), in 2003-2004, a modest bronze coin hoard was discovered. It contained 19 Roman asses and one semis, and 9 units from Castulo/Ka.ś.ti.l.o (Cazlona, Jaén). This coin find contributes to the study of mixed bronze coin hoards –Roman and local coinage– in the south of Hispania during the second half of the second century bc. Its possible formation in the mining district of Castulo, well connected with de port of Malaca by an ancient pre-Roman road known by archaeological and literary sources, are discussed here. Finally, it is emphasized the role of Roman bronzes in relation to the local coinages, especially from 146/141 bc, and also the changes in the metrological criteria during the 1st century bc. Key words: Coin Hoard; Roman Republican asses; Castulo; Malaca; Hispania Ulterior.

The ‘exceptional finds’ of Iruña-Veleia (Álava): Syntax of an archaeological forgery

Zephyrus, lxxix, January-June 2017, pp. 197-217

In 2006, news broke of the discovery of ostraca bearing text in Latin and Basque, as well as Christian drawings, during the 2005 and 2006 excavation campaigns at the Iruña-Veleia site in Álava, Spain. In 2008, these pieces were shown to be fakes. The ‘Iruña-Veleia case’, as it has come to be known, has been the subject of several partial studies, primarily focused on the forgeries. This paper will analyse it from a contextual perspective. To this end, it first defines the general pattern, or ‘syntax’, followed by historical forgeries. It then applies this syntax to the Iruña-Veleia case, reviewing how it unfolded in the academic, political, institutional and social spheres. In each one, the syntax showed certain oddities, mainly due to the social context in which the events took place and their link to nationalist identity, a subject related to the content of the forged specimens. Despite this link, however, in this case it cannot be concluded that nationalism was the driving force behind the forgery. Key words: fakes; nationalism; Basque Country; mass media.

About the prominence in the use of natural accidents in the caves of Bédeilhac (Ariège, France) and El Pindal (Asturies, Spain)

Zephyrus, lxxix, January-June 2017, pp. 221-231

The utilisation of natural reliefs is well known in the rock art of the Upper Palaeolithic, but it is often un- derestimated. In this note, two unpublished examples coming from the caves of Bédeilhac (Ariège, France) and El Pindal (Asturias, Spain) are described. In both cases, they are reliefs slightly separated from the wall, which have the shape of a natural animal head. The only human intervention consisted in the addition of an engraved eye and some traces of red pigment. The similarity of treatment in the two caves suggests a commonality of thought. Thus the reliefs used in Bédeilhac and El Pindal must be added to the numerous convergences already known between the two sites, among which the presence of Pyrenean claviforms in El Pindal, and confirms a strong cultural proximity between the French Pyrenees and the western side of the Cantabrian region during the Magdalenian period. Key words: Magdalenian; French Pyrenees; Cantabrian region; cultural exchanges; Gestalt psychology.

Abstract: Located in the foothills of the north-western sector of the Estrela Mountain (Beira Alta province in central-north Portugal), Penedo dos Mouros Rock-shelter revealed a succession of three distinct archaeological horizons datable to the evolved Early Neolithic and initial Middle Neolithic, thus partially coinciding with the onset of the regional Megalithism. The find of a few caprine remains at least one possible sheep, among a large spectrum of species –swine, rabbit, hare, Iberian lynx and toad–, makes this site the oldest in the region to provide direct evidence for herding practices. Small-sized pots, expedient use of local lithic raw materials together with curated use of exogenous flint, and low density of artefacts indicate a strategy of residential mobility in line with similar evidence observed elsewhere in Beira Alta. Given previous claims of Neolithic vertical transhumance between montane plateaux –in the summer– and lowland plains –in the winter–, this hypothesis is here discussed –and refuted– based on spatial analysis of Neolithic sites, economic characterization of the period and local orographic and bioclimatic constraints.

Resumen: Ubicado en las estribaciones del sector no de la Sierra de la Estrella (provincia de Beira Alta, en el centro-norte de Portugal), el Abrigo de Penedos dos Mouros ha revelado una sucesión de tres horizontes arqueo- lógicos distintos, asignables al Neolítico Antiguo evolucionado y Neolítico Medio, coincidiendo así, parcialmen- te, con el inicio del Megalitismo regional. El hallazgo de un número limitado de restos de caprino –al menos una posible oveja– entre un largo espectro de especies –cerdo, conejo, liebre, lince ibérico y sapo– convierte este

yacimiento en el más antiguo de la región con evidencia directa de mantenimiento de ganado. Vasos de pequeño tamaño, uso oportunista de materias primas líticas locales, acompañado de uso extensivo de sílex exógeno y baja densidad de artefactos, indican una estrategia de movilidad residencial en la misma línea de evidencias similares observadas en otros yacimientos en Beira Alta. Dadas reivindicaciones anteriores de trashumancia vertical entre la meseta serrana –en verano– y las planicies bajas –en invierno–, esta hipótesis es discutida –y refutada– con base en el análisis espacial de yacimientos neolíticos, caracterización económica del periodo, orografía local y restricciones bioclimáticas. Palabras clave: Neolítico; Beira Alta; Megalitismo; sistemas de asentamiento; ganadería; pastoreo.

Zephyrus will acknowledge receipt of articles, indicating they date they are received, within a maximum of 30 working days from that date. Authors will likewise be informed of the date when the article is sent for review. If necessary, they will be informed of any changes to be made in the original manuscript before it can be definitively accepted. The Editorial Board will decide on publication within a maximum period of six months from the date received, and authors will be informed with a reasoned decision. 5. Articles are published in Spanish, English or French. The Editorial Board may exceptionally admit original manuscripts written in other languages. In any case, articles should include a separate page containing author information (see 2 above), the title of the article in Spanish and English (and in its original language, if different), an abstract of approximately 200 words and several key words (not included in the title) to facilitate indexing, also in Spanish and English. The body of the text should be structured in sections, numbered with Arabic numerals. 6. Original manuscripts submitted to the Varia section must be no longer than 5 pages (approx. 2,000 words), with a logical structure similar to that of articles and also accompanied by the information and elements mentioned above in points 2 and 4 (title, abstract, etc). Reviews should be of a similar length and only include the author’s name at the end of the text. They should be critical rather than descriptive. 7. References should be inserted in the text (surnames in lower case, no first name initial; year, and in certain cases, the page numbers preceded by a colon). Footnotes should be limited to brief comments or non-bibliographical references. In the case of books and monographs, the place of publication should be included; for conferences, the place and date held, as well as the place of publication and the pages. The bibliography should be placed at the end of the text, following the model indicated in the following examples: Monograph: Jordá, F. and Sanchidrián, J. L. (1992): La Cueva de Maltravieso. Mérida: Editora Regional de Extremadura. Article published in a journal: Maluquer de Motes, J. (1951): “De la Salamanca primitiva”, Zephyrus, II, pp. 61-72. Contribution to a book, proceedings, congress, etc: Boast, R. (1995): “Fine pots, pure pots, Beaker pots”. En Kinnes, I. y Varndell, G. (eds.): Unbaked Urns of Rudely Shape. Oxford: Oxbow, pp. 69-80. 8. Tables, maps, figures and photographs must be of the highest quality and should be submitted in electronic format (tiff or jpg) separate from the text. All of these elements must be numbered in Arabic numerals, preceded by the abbreviation Fig. Their approximate placing in the text should be indicated in the text, and they should be accompanied by a caption indicating the source. 9. For abbreviations, text divisions and numbering of sections cf. Stylesheet. 10. Authors will be sent a single galley proof, which they should correct and return within 10 days of receiving it. Corrections should be limited to possible misprints and brief rectifications, avoiding substantial changes to the text. 11. Copyright belongs to the journal, and permission must be sought from the Editorial Board, Ediciones Universidad de Salamanca and the authors for partial or total reproduction or inclusion in repositories or online databases. Zephyrus will send the authors of each article a free copy of the issue and a pdf offprint.
