    Geoarchaeology and Chronostratigraphy of the Middle-Upper Palaeolithic transition at the cave of La Güelga (Cangas de Onis, Asturias, Spain).
    (A. Pastoors y B. Auffermann, 2013-05-16) Carral González, Pilar; Wood, Rachel; Jordá Pardo, Jesús Francisco; Menéndez Fernández, Mario; Quesada López, José Manuel
    The cave of La Güelga (Asturias, Spain) is located in the eastern region of the Asturian Massif within the carboniferous limestones of the Calizas de Montaña. A small river runs through the cave, and this has formed several marks on the walls and terraces at the cave entrance. This cavity is large and has the morphology of a rock shelter. In one terrace, an Upper Pleistocene deposit containing archaeological and palaeontological remains from the Middle to Upper Palaeolithic transition has been excavated. These deposits have been AMS dated at the Oxford Radiocarbon Accelerator Unit (ORAU). Bones were pretreated using the ultrafiltration protocol, which aims to purify the collagen selected for dating by removing contaminants. In many cases, dates on collagen processed in this way are significantly older than those where collagen has not been ultrafiltered. The new dates place the lower deposits from zone D between 55,710 – 44,940 years cal BP, during OIS 3c.

    Study of the access routes to the Castilian plateau through the Sella River valley (Asturias, Spain) during the end of the Upper Palaeolithic
    (Elsevier, 2022-12-18) Válles Fernández, Manuel Amalio; Menéndez Fernández, Mario; Jordá Pardo, Jesús Francisco; Cocero Matesanz, David
    The Sella River valley (Asturias, Spain) has been and is currently a benchmark in Palaeolithic discoveries and research. The location and the number of archaeological sites along its orography certify a significant human presence in the valley throughout all of Prehistory. The mobility that these human groups exercised and developed along the fluvial valley and its geographical location, invites the study of access routes to the exploitation of existing resources, as well as the exploration of territories, such as access to the valley of the Duero River, during the Late Glacier. The use of auxiliary tools such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for the study and tracing of prehistoric transit routes, have meant enormous progress in this field, although they are not the definitive solution. In this work we verify the existence of errors generated by these tools. The superimposition of the routes calculated on the real orography of the territory subject to study in this article, reflect certain paths that are impossible to carry out. A verification on the ground is necessary, which serves to elaborate the best route in this case, referring to the Azilian period
