dc.description.abstract | Documenting the intentional structuring of space by hunter-gatherers can be challenging, especially in complex cave contexts. One approach is the spatial analysis of discard patterns. Here, the authors consider the spatial distribution of faunal remains from the Lower Magdalenian Level 115 in El Mirón Cave, Cantabria, to assess a possible structuring function for an unusual alignment of rocks. Although it is impossible to determine whether the alignment was intentionally constructed, differences in the distributions of taxa and in specimen sizes on different sides of this feature suggest that it played a role in structuring the living space of the cave's inhabitants. | es_ES |
dc.description.sponsorship | Jones’s analysis of the El Mirón Level 115 archaeofauna was supported by a Spain Fulbright Scholar Award and by a Faculty Field Research Grant from the Latin American and Iberian Institute of the University of New Mexico. The excavation of El Mirón Cave, directed by Straus and González Morales since 1996, has been authorised and partially funded by the Gobierno de Cantabria, with additional funding from the US National Science Foundation, Fundación M. Botín, L.S.B. Leakey Foundation, Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia, National Geographic Society, University of New Mexico, UNM Foundation Stone Age Research Fund (J. and R. Auel, principal donors), and material support from the IIIPC and Town of Ramales de la Victoria, Cantabria. | es_ES |
