“…At present there is no extensive archaeological data for the time period after MIS 6 in the Miño River basin, although there is evidence for the presence of Neanderthal populations with Middle Palaeolithic technology, which survived in NW Iberia until MIS 3 (Rey-Rodríguez et al, 2016). Likewise, there is currently no data on Upper Palaeolithic sites in the lower basin, in contrast to what has been observed in neighbouring areas (Villar Quinteiro, 1996;Mercier et al, 2009;Vaquero Rodríguez et al, 2009;De Lombera Hermida et al, 2013;Gaspar et al, 2015;Rey-Rodríguez et al, 2016).…”
