出版社:Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas
摘要:The study of the economic behaviour of the last hunter-gatherers of the Cantabrian Mesolithic, mainly dominated by the rich assemblages related to marine exploitation, has limited evidences of terrestrial mammals consumption, which implies a break with the general trend observed during the Upper Palaeolithic. The reasons behind this change and its implication in the demography of the region are assessed here with the detailed archaezoological and taphonomical analysis of the macromammals of Mazaculos II Cave (Ribadedeva, Asturias), a shell-midden that houses one of the most important fossil deposits of this period. In addition the first signs of domestication in Western Cantabria are presented.
