“…In terms of the palaeodemographic modelling of our data, a likely complication is that sea-level rise reduced the visibility of earlier sites [ 7 ], resulting in an intense pressure of research on later, better-preserved sites. In adition, sedimentary processes have affected the preservation of archaeological contexts during the Middle Magdalenian ca 16–14.5 kyr ago, as pointed out by a recent study published after our paper was submitted [ 27 ]. New research undertaken in the context of commercial archaeology rescue operations in the Vouga Valley shows evidence of Magdalenian and Early Holocene radiocarbon dated sites further north Estremadura [ 27 ].…”

“…In adition, sedimentary processes have affected the preservation of archaeological contexts during the Middle Magdalenian ca 16–14.5 kyr ago, as pointed out by a recent study published after our paper was submitted [ 27 ]. New research undertaken in the context of commercial archaeology rescue operations in the Vouga Valley shows evidence of Magdalenian and Early Holocene radiocarbon dated sites further north Estremadura [ 27 ]. This suggests that the long term demographic patterns identified in this study for the Late Glacial might need to be revisited in the future, as new radiocarbon datasets are published.…”

“…After the post-LGM warming until the Middle Holocene forests expanded with an increase of Mediterranean vegetation (Carrión, 2015). At the same time, the proliferation of archaeological sites suggests an increase in population (Thacker, 2002(Thacker, , 2006, of intensity in resource exploitation (Bicho et al, 2011(Bicho et al, , 2000Haws, 2006Haws, , 2003Hockett and Haws, 2009), and the diversity of regional technological traits with rapid but discrete chronological changes (Bicho, 1992;Gameiro, 2012;Gameiro et al, 2020;Holst, 2017;Zilhão, 1997). Precisely during the Early Holocene, the regional toolkits are very similar to the Magdalenian, but already include the introduction of geometrics made on Upper Paleolithic-like bladelets (Araújo, 2012;Bicho, 1998Bicho, , 2002Pereira and Carvalho, 2015).…”

“…A fragmentação da cadeia operatória é evidente: remontagens escassas (0,2% de taxa de sucesso), sequências de debitagem difíceis de descrever devido à ausência de certas fases e ao transporte de utensílios preparados ou acabados. Estas características parecem apontar para um sítio pouco especializado em termos funcionais e ocupado em episódios de curta duração, sendo comuns em sítios datados do Tardiglaciar (Gameiro -Aubry -Almeida 2008;Gameiro 2012;2018;Gameiro et al 2020b).…”

“…Esta maior independência em relação às fontes de matéria -prima pode explicar a miniaturização da utensilagem e a circulação de matéria -prima já sob a forma de núcleo pré -preparado. Tem sido argumentado que, comparativamente com períodos precedentes, durante este período teria existido uma mobilidade residencial mais elevada e que a estratégia de subsistência estaria mais próxima do tipo forrageador do que do tipo colector, implicando deslocações frequentes em torno do sítio numa área de 10 km e consequente abandono da área após o esgotamento de recursos (Zilhão 1997;Gameiro -Davis -Almeida 2017;Gameiro et al 2020a;Gameiro et al 2020b). Este facto parece estar em concordância com o observado no Vale do Vouga: a ocupação do Gravettense no Vau denota características de residência permanente menos especializada (Gameiro -Aubry 2020) e durante o Magdalenense final e o Azilense parece existir uma maior mobilidade que se traduz em ocupações efémeras, mas repetidas, dos sítios de habitat, como parece ser o caso da plataforma onde foi identificado o Rôdo.…”
