Midgley 10 ‘Pig-menting’ the Spanish Neolithic Angelos Hadjikoumis Introduction In this volume, which focuses on the diff erent trajectories that the process of neolithisation took, this chapter contributes to the discussion by focusing on a well- defi ned geographical area and the relationships that evolved between humans and pigs in that area. Its primary aim is to identify and describe these relationships in the Neolithic, though data from earlier and later periods are also employed to provide a framework for comparison. h is study includes an overview of previous relevant studies, discussion of the role that pigs played in the wider context of neolithisation, and presentation of a chronological and spatial overview of the pig-human relationship in prehistoric Spain. Before examining original data, it is useful to briefl y review current knowledge of the neolithisation of Spain, and the role of animal domestication in this process. Research on the emergence of the Neolithic in Spain has been characterised in the last couple of decades by the intellectual confrontation between diff usionists, also known as migrationists, and indigenists, also known as evolutionists (Bernabeu et al. 1999). As the above terms reveal, the former suggest the spread of a ‘Neolithic package’ including pottery and domesticated animals and plants, through migration (Juan-Cabanilles and Martí 2002; Vincent-García 1997; Zilhão 2001; Zilhão this volume), while the latter favour a gradual evolution of productive economies from the Epipalaeolithic-Mesolithic substrate (Olaria 1998; 2000; 2004–2005). Research based on genetics remains inconclusive and contradictory, and has been used both to support (Bertranpetit and Cavalli-Sforza 1991) and reject (Arnaiz-Villena and Lubell 2000) a spread of people with neolithic innovations. h e indigenist model has been challenged, on the basis of empirical data, by many researchers (e.g. Bernabeu et al. 1999; Fortea and Martí 1984–1985; Zilhão 1993; 2000; 2001) and its infl uence is currently limited. However, there are many intermediate theories between diff usionism and indigenism (for an overview of these theories in Europe, see Richards 2003, 159, and for their impact in the history of Iberian archaeology, see Hernando 1999; Jorge 2000; Martí and Juan-Cabanilles 1997; Rubio 1997; Zilhão 2003; this volume). For the spread of the Neolithic within the Iberian peninsula, two main models are currently employed, which were developed 10. ‘Pig-menting’ the Spanish Neolithic 197 mainly having in mind the archaeological record of northeast Spain. h e fi rst is the ‘dual model’, which claims the existence of Neolithic sites alongside Mesolithic groups continuing their way of life relatively undisturbed (Bernabeu 2002; Juan-Cabanilles and Martí 2002). Similar models have also been proposed for other areas in Europe (e.g., for Denmark, Rowley-Conwy 1985). h e main alternative model, which can be called ‘functional’, rejects dualism and suggests the existence of a single cultural tradition, which adapted its material culture and economic activities to the available opportunities in diff erent areas (Barandiarán and Cava 1992; 2000; Molina et al. 2003). Andrew Sherratt (2007) expressed the opinion that more than one mechanism must have been responsible for the dispersal of the Neolithic lifestyle in diff erent areas of Europe. In the case of Spain, with its broad variety of climatic, geophysical and environmental conditions, a single mechanism explaining the emergence of Neolithic innovations in all regions is unlikely (cf. Barnett 2000). Undeniably, some Neolithic characteristics must have been imported from outside the Iberian peninsula, such as the domestic forms of allochthonous species, but what remains to be resolved is how extensive and widespread the introductions were and how exactly neolithisation evolved as a process in diff erent regions of the peninsula. Most works focussing on the neolithisation of Spain, and the western Mediterranean in general, inform us of the appearance of Neolithic indicators during the sixth millennium BC (Barnett 2000). Such indicators include domestic animals and plants, Cardial pottery, polished axes and evidence of reduced mobility. In many areas of Iberia such as Valencia

  • Abstracts of Reports and Posters
    Abstracts of Reports and Posters Amira Adaileh The Magdalenian site of Bad Kösen-Lengefeld The open air site of Bad Kösen-Lengefeld is located in Sachsen-Anhalt, Eastern Germany. It was discov- ered in the mid 1950´s in the immediate vicinity of the famous Magdalenian site of Saaleck. Since that time, archaeologists collected over 2000 lithic artifacts during systematical surveys. The technological and typological analyses of the lithic artifacts confirmed the assignment of Bad Kösen-Lengefeld to a late Magdalenian. Furthermore, the investigation of the surface collections brought forward information about the character of this camp site, the duration of its occupation and the pattern of raw material procure- ment. The fact that Bad Kösen-Lengefeld is located in a region with more than 100 Magdalenian sites fostered a comparison of the lithic inventory with other Magdalenian assemblages. Thus, allowing to spec- ify the position of the Lengefeld collection within the chorological context of the Magdalenian in Eastern Germany. Jehanne Affolter, Ludovic Mevel Raw material circulation in northern french alps and Jura during lateglacial interstadial : method, new data and paleohistoric implication Since fifteen years the study of the characterization and origin of flint resources used by Magdalenian and Azilian groups in northern French Alps and Jura have received significant research work. Diverse and well distributed spatially, some of these resources were used and disseminated throughout the late Upper Paleolithic. Which changes do we observe during the Magdalenian then for the Azilian? The results of petrographic analysis and techno-economic analysis to several archaeological sites allow us to assess dia- chronic changes in economic behavior of these people and discuss the significance of these results.

Gasparyan, Archaeology, Institute of Archaeology & Ethnography, ARMENIA For more than a century numerous archaeological sites attributed to the Middle Paleolithic have been investigated in the Southern Caucasus, but to date few have been excavated, analyzed, or dated using modern techniques. Thus only a handful of sites provide the contextual data necessary to address evolutionary questions regarding regional hominin adaptations and life-ways. This talk will consider current archaeological research in the Southern Caucasus, specifically that being conducted in the Republic of Armenia. While the relative frequency of well-studied Middle Paleolithic sites in the Southern Caucasus is low, those considered in this talk, Nor Geghi 1 (late Middle Pleistocene) and Lusakert Cave 1 (Upper Pleistocene), span a variety of environmental, temporal, and cultural contexts that provide fragmentary glimpses into what were complex and evolving patterns of subsistence, settlement, and mobility over the last ~200,000 years. While a sample of two sites is too small to attempt a serious reconstruction of Middle Paleolithic life-ways across such a vast and environmentally diverse region, the sites

  • Archaeological Background 1.1. North Africa
    Supplementary Note 1: Archaeological background 1.1. North Africa Youssef Bokbot, Jonathan Santana-Cabrera, Jacob Morales-Mateos and Abdeslam Mikdad 1.1.1. The Cave of Ifri n’Amr o’Moussa Ifri n'Amr ou Moussa is a cave located on the Zemmour Plateau in the Oued Beth Basin (Central Morocco). It presents a stratigraphic sequence ranging from Iberomaurusian to Chalcolithic1. Preliminary evidence suggests the arrival of the Neolithic package in this region during the last quarter of the 6th millennium cal BCE. A barley grain and an undetermined fruit have been radiocarbon dated between ca. 5,200 to 4,900 cal BCE, indicating the presence of an Early Neolithic occupation (Trench 2, SU 2006 and 2007; fruit, 5,207 - 4,944 cal BCE; Hordeum vulgare, 5,211 - 4,963 cal BCE) (Figure S1.1.). This evidence comes from deposits of ash and charcoal that included impressed-cardial ceramics and possibly domestic fauna1. Some disturbance of the archaeological layers was recorded during fieldwork. In order to confirm the antiquity of the skeletons analyzed in this study, we have dated them directly by means of 14C. The dates on the skeletons point to an Early Neolithic occupation in the late 6th and early 5th millennium BCE (Figure S1.1.). They also corroborate the stratigraphic relationship among burials, domesticated cereals, and Cardial pottery that was observed in archaeological fieldwork1. Finally, the cave yielded evidence of Bell-Beaker potteries2 and several Chalcolithic burials3. There are seven burial sites belonging to the Early Neolithic period in Ifri n’Amr o’Moussa. Funerary utilization of the caves, along with domestic activity, is also noticed in other sites of the same period in the region, including El Kiffen4, El-Mnasra5, and El Harhoura II3.
