Resumen
The archaeological site of Torca L’Arroyu was discovered in 2002 during the works of construction of the new net of sewer of Llanera’s municipality (province of Asturias, N of Spain). The archaeological deposit is placed inside a small cave and it has provided some ceramic fragments very rolled, two polished lithic pieces, abundant bones of animals consumed by man and charcoals. The archaeological materials and the 14C dates of the bones associated with the ceramics (UBAR-803 4930 ± 70 BP y UBAR-804 4240 ± 60 BP) indicate the existence of an settlement of certain duration that would correspond to the chronological frame of the regional Neolithic. Sites of this chronology are very scanty in the Cantabrian area, therefore, this new deposit will contribute to a better knowledge of the Neolithic in this zone of the Iberian Peninsula.
