Ocupacions humanes reiterades al llarg del temps: excavació arqueològica de l'Abric de Les Obagues de Ratera (original) (raw)
2019, XI Jornades sobre Recerca al Pare Nacional d'Aigüestortes i Estany de Sant Maurici
Among the 350 archaeological sites discovered in the National Park there are several rock-shelters. Those little cavities are formed by glacial erratics. Between 2015 and 2017 one of them has been completely excavated, the Abric de les Obagues de Ratera. Excavation works have highlithed a long sequence of human occupation, over about 10 ka yrs. The recurrent use of the rock-shelter as dwelling space and/or overnight shelter is a good example of the long-term continuity in the archaeological record of the National Park, despite periods of abandonment. The site allows to study in detail the shifts in patterns of occupation of the rock-shelter and the in the economic activities carried out.

The excavation of the Las Obagues de Ratera Rockshelter, above 2300 m of altitude, has allowed to document a large archaeological sequence. An intense radiocarbon dating defines the chronology of these occupations, which from the beginning of the Holocene and until the XXth century, covering different prehistoric and historic periods. The analysis of the materials recovered during excavations complements the image of this little rockshelter as a place used repeatedly but in changing ways over time. The study of this site highlights the archaeological remains of alpine and subalpine areas and reaffirms its potential for the study of the past.

The geographical area of the current village of Tous comprises a part of the south-western zone of the Òdena depression which is geologically characterized by formations of siliceous rocks that surface and the arrangement of chert in the fluvial terraces of its rivers. The archaeological research carried out so far has shown that the groups of Neanderthals from Abric Romaní made an exploitation of these resources more than 50,000 years ago and it had continuity throughout the Later Prehistory by the appearance of a large number of sites known as flint workshops. Likewise, the exploitation of Tous chert would have involved different dynamics of human occupation of its territory throughout Prehistory.

Aquest any 2020 les intervencions arqueològiques es van portar a terme del 14 de febrer al 14 de març de 2020. Les directores de la Missió han estat les Dres. Maite Mascort i Esther Pons. Els treballs s'han centrat en una de les àrees més importants del jaciment, la Necròpolis Alta, i afortunadament podem dir que ha estat una campanya fructífera quant a troballes arqueològiques, el que ens permetrà tenir un millor coneixement, no solament de les estructures arquitectòniques sinó també dels diferents rituals funeraris des d'Època Saïta fins el període cristià-bizantí. S'ha intervingut en tres dels sectors d'aquesta Necròpolis: Sector 24, els treballs han estat supervisats pel Sr. José Javier Martínez, Sector 2D, les tasques d'aquest sector han estat portades a terme per la Dra. Núria Castellano i el Sector 36 on han intervingut Dra.
