En este artículo describimos la metodología para la obtención de este tipo de productos, dividido en dos fases: la documentación geométrica previa para la obtención del modelo digital y su incorporación a un motor de juegos para la generación del recorrido interactivo. En esta misma línea, proponemos como caso de estudio la intervención en el yacimiento arqueológico de la Cova del Barranc del Migdia, yacimiento arqueológico situado en la vertiente Sur del monte Montgó, dentro del Parque Natural del Montgó, en el municipio de Xàbia (Alicante, España).

Thanks to the discovery of the Cova del Comte, where the art is accompanied by an archaeological deposit, we are able to study it within a defined chronological context. The stylistic features of some of the figures correspond to ancient pre-Magdalenian art, which places it within the Gravettian and early Solutrean period; this information is consistent with the results of the excavation.

In this work, we present new data to fill these gaps. We provide direct AMS radiocarbon dating and carbon (d 13 C) and nitrogen (d 15 N) stable isotope analysis were carried out on bone collagen samples of two single burials from the recently discovered open-air Late Mesolithic site of Casa Corona (Villena, Spain). The results shed new light on the chronology and subsistence patterns of the last Mesolithic communities in the Central Mediterranean region of the Iberian Peninsula. Radiocarbon results date the human remains and funerary activity of the site to 6059e5849 cal BC, statistically different from other Late Mesolithic sites and the earliest Neolithic contexts, and bridging the 500 yrs chronological gap of the MesolithiceNeolithic transition from the area. Isotopic evidence shows that diet was based on terrestrial resources despite the proximity to the site of lagoon and marine ecosystems. This and previous isotope studies from the region suggest a lower reliance upon marine resources than for Atlantic and Cantabrian sites, although intra-regional patterns of neighbouring Mesolithic populations exhibit both fully terrestrial diets and diets with significant amounts of aquatic resources in them. We hypothesize that in the Central Mediterranean region of Spain the Late Mesolithic dietary adaptations imposed structural limits on demographic growth of the last foragers and favoured rapid assimilation by the earliest Neolithic populations.

However, little is known about the genetic structure and changes of prehistoric populations in different geographic areas of Iberia. In our study, we focused on the maternal genetic makeup of the Neolithic (∼ 5500-3000 BCE), Chalcolithic (∼ 3000-2200 BCE) and Early Bronze Age (∼ 2200-1500 BCE). We report ancient mitochondrial DNA results of 213 individuals (151 HVS-I sequences) from the northeast, central, southeast and southwest regions and thus on the largest archaeogenetic dataset from the Peninsula to date. Similar to other parts of Europe, we observe a discontinuity between hunter-gatherers and the first farmers of the Neolithic. During the subsequent periods, we detect regional continuity of Early Neolithic lineages across Iberia, however the genetic contribution of hunter-gatherers is generally higher than in other parts of Europe and varies regionally. In contrast to ancient DNA findings from Central Europe, we...

Abstract During the recent campaign of excavation at the Cova del Barranc del Migdia (Javea, Alicante)we have carried out the 3D documentation of the wall painting motifs, which corresponds to the schematic rock art style. To produce the 3D models, we have used Photomodeler Scanner, a commercial digital photogrammetry software with increased use in the cultural heritage sector. The results have been exported to a format compatible with 3D printers, creating a 1/1 scale replica of the original panel. In this paper we describe the typical workflow in a project with Photomodeler Scanner and the results obtained from the x-3 panel.

However, little is known about the genetic structure and changes of prehistoric populations in different geographic areas of Iberia. In our study, we focus on the maternal genetic makeup of the Neolithic (~ 5500–3000 BCE), Chalcolithic (~3000–2200 BCE) and Early Bronze Age (~ 2200–1500 BCE).

During the subsequent periods, we detect regional continuity of Early Neolithic lineages across Iberia, however the genetic contribution of hunter-gatherers is generally higher than in other parts of Europe and varies regionally. In contrast to ancient DNA findings from Central Europe, we do not observe a major turnover in the mtDNA record of the Iberian Late Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age, suggesting that the population history of the Iberian Peninsula is distinct in character.
