Description

Within the framework of the project that we are conducting in the drainage of Sado River, mainly focused on the study of the Mesolithic shell mounds, we are carrying out archaeological surface surveys in order to identify new sites and relocate the already known ones. The surveys conducted aim to obtain a sequence of prehistoric settlement in an area that until this date was not sistematically surveyed. Although this project is focused on the study of the Mesolithic/Neolithic transition, the proposed methodology involved a total coverage of the area, as well as the recording of archaeological evidence, regardless of their chronology. Here we present a summary of these new sites of historical chronology, as a contribution to the archaeological knowledge of the area.
