A ocupação Pré‑histórica do Cabeço de Caria Talaia (Sabugal, Portugal)

Abstract

This paper presents evidence for the prehistoric occupation of Cabeço de Caria Talaia, Sabugal (Portugal). Despite the poor preservation of the structures and its artefacts, the archaeological intervention conducted in 2008 and 2009 allowed to define its inhabitance at an advanced phase between the Middle Bronze Age and the beginning of the Late Bronze Age. Furthermore, a significant set of ceramics allowed to integrate this site as part of the tradition of proto‑Cogotas and Cogotas I productions, located at the westernmost edge of the Meseta and, consequently, on the periphery of the complex world of Cogotas I.
