Cave of the Angel (original) (raw)
The Cave of the Angel refers to several cave-related structures located in the Aras mountain range near the town of Lucena, Córdoba province in Spain. The site contains lithic material of an Acheulean typology and dates to that from the Middle Pleistocene to the Upper Pleistocene. There is geological, paleontological, and archaeological evidence indicating an intense and long-term occupation of this site. The numerous bone and lithic remains found in this site, as well as the matrix surrounding them, reveal exposure to fire. This, along with the finding of a wide and deep combustion structure in the stratigraphic profile, support the hypothesis that at the time of the occupation of the site by humans there was processing and consumption of big mammals.

(en) La cueva del Ángel se refiere a un conjunto de estructuras de caverna ubicado en la sierra de Aras, a una altitud de 620 m.s.n.m., perteneciente al municipio de Lucena, en la provincia de Córdoba, España. Aquí se encuentra un yacimiento achelense que se extiende desde el Pleistoceno medio hasta el Pleistoceno superior. Las evidencias geológicas, paleontológicas y arqueológicas señalan a que este emplazamiento fue habitado de forma intensa y continuada durante largos periodos de tiempo. El estudio de los numerosos restos óseos y líticos encontrados con claras evidencias de exposición al fuego junto con el hallazgo de una estructura de combustión extensa y profunda, respaldan la hipótesis de que durante esta intensa ocupación existía un procesamiento y consumo de grandes mamíferos.
