Abstract
Castillejo del Bonete es un lugar sagrado de la Cultura de las Motillas, compuesto por varios túmulos, edificios y corredores con orientaciones astronómicas utilizados durante el Calcolítico y la Edad del Bronce. En el interior de la Galería 3 de la cueva sepulcral del Túmulo 1 se encuentran restos humanos y piezas de ajuar. Este trabajo presenta el estudio de detalle una estela funeraria alóctona tallada en biocalcarenita con briozoos, bivalvos pectínidos y microfósiles característicos de un medio marino. Los estudios realizados permiten afirmar que la pieza procede de los materiales del Mioceno medio de la provincia de Albacete.
Castillejo del Bonete is a sacred place of the Motillas Culture, that consists of several tumuli, buildings and corridors with astronomical orientations used during Chalcolithic and Bronze Age. There are human remains and archaeological pieces inside Gallery 3 of the sepulchral cave. This work presents the detailed study of one funerary stele carved on allochthonous fossiliferous limestone. The studies carried out allow us to affirm that the piece comes from middle Miocene of the province of Albacete.
