Abstract

The Early PPNB (pre-pottery Neolithic B) period is crucial to the understanding of the emergence of farming in the Levant. The process of domestication of animals and plants characterises PPNB communities, and is associated with the appearance of complex buildings, the transition from rounded to squared houses and the appearance of technological (i.e. naviform debitage or long tanged projectile points) and symbolic innovations (i.e. the generalisation of human iconography) (Gopher 1996; Cauvin 1997; Coqueugniot 2000; Strodeur & Abbès 2002). In spite of its centrality to the understanding of domestication and permanent settlement, the Early PPNB remains poorly understood, especially in the central and southern Levant (Kuijt & Goring-Morris 2002; Edwards et al. 2005). A new research project has recently been set up at Tell Qarassa to fill this gap. Tell Qarassa is located to the south of the Leja region, 20km west of the city of Sweida, next to a dry lake surrounded by archaeological sites from different periods (Natufian, PPNB, PN, Bronze and Iron Ages). In 2007, the Syrian-French Archaeological Mission directed by Frank Braemer (CNRS) discovered extremely well preserved PPNB architectural remains on the northern tell. In 2009, the Spanish team directed by Juan José Ibáñez (IMF-CSIC) took over the excavation of the PPNB levels of Tell Qarassa North as part of a collaborative project with the Syrian-French Mission.

5. History and traditional cultivation of Lathyrus sativus L. and Lathyrus citera L. in the Iberian peninsula.

Author

Peña-Chocarro, Leonor and Zapata Peña, Lydia

Abstract

Recent ethnographic research carried out in Spain has allowed the cultivation of Lathyrus sativus L. and L. cicera L. to be documented. Both species already appear in the Spanish archaeological record. Grown under traditional farming systems, L. sativus L. and L. cicera L. are still used for human consumption (only L. sativus L.) and both are used for fodder. Data on cultivation history, fanning practices, crop processing sequence and uses are here presented, which will enable a better understanding of their possible roles in prehistoric times.

6. Lighting the dark: Wood charcoal analysis from Cueva de Nerja (Málaga, Spain) as a tool to explore the context of Palaeolithic rock art.

Abstract

This study examines 100 charred plant macroremains from the inner galleries of Cueva de Nerja in order to better understand the context of Palaeolithic rock art and obtain information about possible lighting systems. The remains were retrieved on the surface, very close to Palaeolithic cave paintings, and also from inside possible points of fixed lighting. The predominant wood-type is Pinus sp., especially Pinus tp. sylvestris/nigra . The taphonomic alterations recorded are attributable to the combustion process (vitrification and cracks), the possible gathering of dead wood (fungal hyphae/mycelia), the use of branches and twigs (reaction wood) and the burning of resinous taxa (resin marks). The identification of a vegetative bud of Pinus sylvestris furnishes information about the use of tree branches, as well as the time of year at which the Cueva de Nerja may have been frequented by prehistoric groups.
