Evidencia gráfica mueble de cronología neolítica en el abrigo de Atxoste (Vírgala, Álava)

[ES] El yacimiento de Atxoste (Vírgala, Álava) presenta una secuencia estratigráfica amplia, con seis niveles culturalmente adscritos al Mesolítico (pregeométrico y geométrico), Neolítico y Calcolítico. El horizonte IIIb1, de factura neolítica, ha suministrado una evidencia gráfica mueble sobre asta de cérvido. Se han analizado los procesos técnicos y tafonómicos que han configurado la obra. En segundo lugar, se compara el objeto con efectivos precedentes y contemporáneos de estilo similar, reflexionando sobre la validez y los limites del procedimiento.

Towards a participatory integrated assessment approach for planning and managing Natura 2000 network sites

Managing protected areas implies dealing with complex social-ecological systems where multiple dimensions (social, institutional, economic and ecological) interact over time for the delivery of ecosystem services. Uni-dimensional and top-down management approaches have been unable to capture this complexity. Instead, new integrated approaches that acknowledge the diversity of social actors in the decision making process are required. In this paper we put forward a novel participatory assessment approach which integrates multiple methodologies to reflect different value articulating institutions in the case of a Natura 2000 network site in the Basque Country. It integrates within a social multi-criteria evaluation framework, both the economic values of ecosystem services through a choice experiment model and ecological values by means of a spatial bio-geographic assessment. By capturing confronting social and institutional conflicts in protected areas the participatory integrated assessment approach presented here can help decision makers for better planning and managing Natura 2000 sites.

Las industrias prehistóricas del yacimiento de San Juan (Castro Urdiales, Cantabria) y su contextualización cronológica y cultural

[ES] El análisis directo de los ajuares lítico y óseo que se conservan del yacimiento de San juan, nos induce a plantear una hipótesis principal, según la cual la ocupación prehistórica del depósito debió producirse fundamentalmente durante el Aziliense, aunque no puede descartarse un origen anterior, en las últimas fases del Magdaleniense.
