About
My research guidelines currently travel by several paths, regarding specifically the ancient peasant communities of southwestern Iberian Peninsula:
1 - Megalithic monuments and megalithic communities in Alentejo, centered in Ribeira Grande region (Portalegre district);
2 - Early Neolithic settlements in Estremadura, centered in the late cardial settlement of Freixo (North region of Estremadura Limestone Massif) and Meso-Neolithic settlements of Zibreira (Lisbon Peninsula region);
3 - Neolithic-Chalcolithic cave burials in Estremadura, centered in Serra de Aires and Candeeiros moutain-ranges region (Lapa da Galinha and Buraca da Moura caves);
4 - Neolithic flint procurement sources in Estremadura, centered in the sites of Pedreira do Aires and Monte das Pedras (lower Lisbon Peninsula region);
5 - Early Neolithic – Late Neolithic knapped stone industry comparison, centered in the lithic assemblage from Early Neolithic site of Zibreira and Late Neolithic site of Vale de Lobos (low Lisbon Peninsula region).
Although apparently dealing with different themes, they all come together and complement each other in the range of a better definition of the Prehistory of the ancient peasant communities of the 6th to 3rd millennia Cal BC.
Recently, my research interests turned to the study of human communities of late Upper Paleolithic (terminal magdalenian sites of Cortes, Telheiro and Cruz da Areia) and Mesolithic (sites of Valongos 1 to 4) in the Portuguese Limestone Massif, a complex but exciting subject.
