dc.description.abstract | The relationship between residence, gender and mobility is central to the study of early social complexity. And
yet, until recently, it was deemed as archaeologically intractable. The recent combination of strontium data and
genomics with other methods has opened up entirely new possibilities for the archaeological study of human
mobility, but these advances are not without problems. Theoretical framing, empirical accuracy and data
interpretation remain controversial. In this paper we address the relationship between residence patterns, gender
and mobility among early complex societies, combining both ethnographic and archaeological evidence. Our
approach focuses on Chalcolithic Iberia, a period in which the stage for emerging social complexity was set. The
possible existence of male-centered residential patterns and their possible connection with conflict, social
complexity and gender inequalities is examined. The available data on strontium isotopes suggest women were
more frequently buried in places different from those where they grew up, which can be linked to bilocality
biased to patrilocality, especially in the so called ‘mega-sites’. While preliminary, this body of evidence opens up
fresh lines of enquiry for the study of early complex societies, highlights the benefits of combining different kinds
of evidence, and underlines the centrality of gender in the social analysis. | es |
