dc.description.abstract | Very little information is currently available on the internal layout and functional diversity of Portuguese
Mesolithic shell middens. This is mainly due to the fact that previous work has focused mostly on restricted
parts of the middens. New excavations at Cabeço da Amoreira, however, have strongly been concerned
with the study of site formation processes and spatial organization. The most remarkable feature of this
new work has been the identification of a series of non-midden, multi-stratified loci found in the immediate
vicinity of the mound. In this paper, we present the general characteristics of the non-midden components
regarding their stratigraphic context, artefactual composition, and chronological succession. Although
preliminary, these data are of major importance with regard to two aspects of the Muge shell middens.
First, they disclose the organization of the settlement during the Mesolithic, with shell middens no longer
being regarded as simple, isolated base camp units. Second, this work identified a series of Neolithic
occupations around the midden as an important element in our understanding of the complexity of the
Mesolithic-Neolithic transitional process in central Portugal. This is linked to the question of the ultimate
fate of these Mesolithic communities. | es |
