Hardback. Condition: New. Since the dawn of archaeology, the study of funerary contexts has provided invaluable insights into past societies, a trend that persists in contemporary research. Ongoing discoveries, site re-evaluations and advancements in techniques like DNA analysis continually reshape our understanding of the past.In the specific contexts we are addressing - the emergence of the first farming and herding communities in the Western Mediterranean - few regions in Europe display such systematic funerary practices. A notable example is the Sepulcros de Fosa horizon in the northeastern Iberian Peninsula. Approximately 6,500 years ago in this area, there was a significant increase in the number of found inhumations, with some clustering in cemeteries containing several dozen individuals.Despite sporadic mentions in international publications, the details of the Sepulcros de Fosa horizon funerary practices - such as burial locations, characteristics and performed analysis - are generally not well known, primarily because most of the publications have been presented in Catalan or Spanish. This limits awareness of one of the best-documented archaeological records shedding light on Neolithic communities in the Western Mediterranean.Over a century, the northeastern Iberian Peninsula has yielded numerous Neolithic burials, totalling over 896 graves, predominantly featuring single inhumations. Many of these graves, excavated in ground pits, remain remarkably intact, facilitating interpretations of burial treatments and grave goods, indicative of time and effort invested in acquisition and production.Furthermore, this was also a period of well-established social networks, allowing the distribution of materials such as flint, obsidian or jadeite for crafting lithic tools, and variscite for producing ornaments across extensive territories spanning hundreds of kilometres. These networks had an impact on the social, economic and ideological organization of these communities, as well as their interactions with other European populations. This interconnected world left archaeological traces, evident in the early stages of subsequent megalithic developments.

Rústica. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 01. Pasado y presente se encuentran en estos breves relatos. En apariencia inconexos, se entrelazan poco a poco para formar una historia. Vivencias ficticias ?que pudieron ser reales? de una ciudad que día a día, y sin darnos cuenta, se va transformando, cuando no desapareciendo de la memoria de sus habitantes. Pasado y presente también se combinan en las imágenes que acompañan al texto. Así, en perfecta armonía, tranvías, modernos coches y autobuses circulan sin pudor por viejos puentes bajo los cuales ya no discurre ningún río. El propio río, emblema de la ciudad, ya no es río y sus ocasionales aguas ya no distraen la mirada de los vecinos ni perturban su tranquilidad. También se han esfumado edificios y palacios que fueron emblemáticos. La piqueta y la avaricia los han hecho desaparecer y, sin embargo, se levantan tozudamente. Mientras, los personajes de la historia, ajenos a este asombroso fenómeno, continúan con sus azarosas vidas. No es este un libro para la nostalgia. Sí que es una recuperación de la memoria urbana para mantenerla viva. El hombre hace la ciudad, pero es la ciudad la que, en cierta manera. LIBRO.

Podremos seguir a lo largo de la obra las adaptaciones físicas que guiaron la evolución de los primeros homínidos hasta los humanos modernos, sin olvidar la evolución de la tecnología y de la cultura, que fueron las que, poco a poco, marcaron una diferencia cualitativa y nos hicieron despegar hacia la historia. La consulta de este volumen permitirá al lector interesado encontrar explicaciones a muchos interrogantes que seguramente se ha planteado. El estudiante universitario tendrá en sus manos, además, un instrumento para empezar a conocer con mayor profundidad el aparentemente desconocido mundo de la prehistoria. Otros libros pueden explicar qué pasó en cada una de sus fases, sin embargo, aquí se cuentan los mecanismos de cómo yápor qué se produjeron los diferentes procesos al tiempo que se establece a lo largo delálibro un hilo conductor que nos lleva con lógica y coherencia aátravés de las primeras culturas humanas hasta dejarnos a las puertas de la historia.
