Abstract
Este trabajo expone datos y materiales inéditos sobre dos yacimientos arqueológicos funerarios fundamentales para entender los procesos de cambio cultural sucedidos entre mediados del IV y mediados del I milenios cal AC en el sur de la Meseta: el abrigo del Cerro Ortega y los túmulos de Castillejo del Bonete. La presencia de componentes tales como ídolos, cerámicas del tipo Dornajos, adornos personales de variscita, marfil, concha o hueso, así como su orientación a eventos astronómicos, aporta información acerca de los aspectos simbólicos de las primeras comunidades productoras de La Mancha y Campo de Montiel. También de los procesos que derivarán en la organización de las primeras sociedades complejas de la región, que en modo alguno fue ‘un vacío’ en estas épocas. El estudio permite observar cómo han evolucionado las pautas funerarias durante la Prehistoria reciente en la cuenca alta del río Guadiana hasta la Cultura de las Motillas, también conocida como Bronce de La Mancha.
This work presents unpublished data and materials on two fundamental archaeological funerary sites to understand the processes of cultural change between the middle of the IVth and the middle of the Ist millennium BC to the South of the Iberian Plateau: the shelter of Cerro Ortega and the tumuli of Castillejo del Bonete. The presence in both sites of pieces such as idols, pottery of the Dornajos type, personal adornments of variscite, ivory, shell or bone, as well as their orientation to astronomical events, provides information about the symbolic aspects of the first producing communities of La Mancha and Campo de Montiel. The data provided also gives information about the processes that will result in the organization of the first complex societies of the region, which in no way was 'a vacuum' in these times. The study allows us to observe how funerary patterns have evolved during the recent Prehistory in the upper basin of the Guadiana River, until culminating in the formation of the Culture of the Motillas, also known as Bronze Age of La Mancha.
