High Resolution Archaeology and Neanderthal Behavior - Time and Space in Level J of Abric Romaní (Capellades, Spain)

The aim of this book is to provide a new insight on Neanderthal behaviour using the data recovered in level J of Roman� rockshelter (north-eastern Spain). Due to the sedimentary dynamics that formed the Roman� deposit, the occupation layers are characterized by a high temporal resolution, which makes it easier to interprete the archaeological data in behavioural terms. In addition, the different analytical domains�(geoarchaeology, lithic technology, zooarchaeology, taphonomy, anthracology, palaeontology) are addressed from a spatial perspective that is basic to understand human behaviour, but also to evaluate the behavioural inferences in the framework of the archaeological formation processes.�
