Data for the study of fibulae pivot in the Iberian Peninsula. The piece of Cerro de la Mora (Moraleda de Zafayona, Granada)

Due to the complexity of the archaic elbow fibulae of the Iberian Peninsula, our work traits to organize the pivot group. First, its mechanics and conceptualization are defined precisely. Later, an analysis of the previous known facts is done, taking into account its cultural ascription, its chronology, its territorial distribution, its morphology and its technology. This analysis is made with the idea of advancing a viable typologic organisation. To realise the work some representative fibulae are considered, especially those more relevant. The criteria used to select these are its contextualization, its metalic composition, internal relation and time and space characteristics. There are no references to fibulae from out of the Peninsula. The main conclusion of the article is that these pieces are older than what was though in the traditional interpretations.
