Abstract
Las prospecciones y sondeos arqueológicos de urgencia llevados a cabo en dos parcelas del término municipal de Cañamero (Cáceres) han revelado la existencia de abundantes restos de industria lítica atribuibles al Paleolítico medio. Tras los correspondientes estudios tecnológicos, en este trabajo se intenta contextualizar el yacimiento a escala regional y estudiar su evolución a lo largo del tiempo (procesos postdeposicionales). Para ello hemos recurrido a diferentes técnicas y métodos de trabajo, como la arqueología, la geomorfología o los Sistemas de Información Geográfica. Nuestro objetivo es contribuir a la mejor compresión de la génesis y evolución de las ocupaciones al aire libre del Paleolítico medio en la región.
The archaeological surveys and prospections carried out in two areas of Cañamero (a municipality in Cáceres) have revealed many remains of Middle Palaeolithic lithic industry. After the necessary technological studies, this paper tries to contextualise the site in a regional scale, and to study its development over time (post-depositional processes). In order to achieve this, we resorted to different techniques and work methods such as archaeology, geomorphology or Geographic Information Systems. Our goal is to contribute to the understanding of the origin and evolution of Middle Palaeolithic outdoor activities in the area.
