“…The chronological information available for some of the sites ( S3a and S3b Table ) repeatedly points to a time within the limits of the Gravettian complex, but some of them are younger coinciding with the Solutrean. Direct dates are available for parietal art in the caves of Cosquer [ 71 ] and Pech Merle [ 72 ], for the context of the art in the case of bones wedged in the wall at Gargas [ 73 , 74 ], for burials at Cussac [ 13 ] and for the stratigraphy in which portable art was found at Parpalló [ 69 ], Abri Laraux [ 67 ], Abri Pataud [ 75 ], Abri Labattut [ 76 ], Isturitz [ 15 ] and Gargas [ 77 ].…”

Redefining shared symbolic networks during the Gravettian in Western Europe: New data from the rock art findings in Aitzbitarte caves (Northern Spain)

The renewal of the archaeological record, mainly through the discovery of unpublished sites, provides information that sometimes qualifies or even reformulates previous approaches. One of the latter cases is represented by the three new decorated caves found in 2015 in Aitzbitarte Hill. Their exhaustive study shows the presence of engraved animals, mainly bison, with formal characteristics unknown so far in the Palaeolithic art of the northern Iberian Peninsula. However, parallels are located in caves in southern France such as Gargas, Cussac, Roucadour or Cosquer. All of them share very specific graphic conventions that correspond to human occupations assigned basically to the Gravettian cultural complex. The new discovery implies the need to reformulate the iconographic exchange networks currently accepted, as well as their correspondence with other elements of the material culture at the same sites. Thus, we have carried out a multiproxy approach based in statistical analysis. The updated data reveals a greater complexity in artistic expression during the Gravettian that had not been considered so far, and also challenges the traditional isolation that had been granted to Cantabrian symbolic expressions during pre-Magdalenian times.

“…A number of examples of rock fragments with more sides painted can be found in Dalmeri shelter(Dalmeri et al 2009) and Parpallò cave (Villaverde 1994), more engraved examples come from a more conspicuous number of sites, e.g. Parpallò cave (Villaverde 1994), Laraux shelter(Airvaux et al 1983),…”

Fumane Cave, northern Italy, with its early Upper Palaeolithic deposit, dating between 41.2-35 ky cal BP, is one of the most significant sites for the understanding of the first Anatomically Modern Human groups in Europe. The archaeological excavations led to discover a consistent archaeological record which includes numerous items connected to the symbolic production too: shells, engraved bones and six ochred stones which are considered among the most ancient evidence of painting activity in Europe. Aside the six painted stones, a high number of ochred rock flakes collected during the excavations have been recently reexamined with the aim to trace further lines of research, i.e. what their origin is, so if they are fragments of parietal art or not and how these stones or part of them fit in the wider context of the most ancient forms of art in Europe. Specifically, within this paper, authors present four newly recognised painted stones which were analysed according to their graphic themes and techniques, their chronology and spatial distribution. This leads to deepen the issues of symbolic production in the Fumane Cave, the use of the site, identifying any productive area. Moreover, the newly presented findings, together with the already known ones are contextualized into the contemporaneous Italian and European context providing data towards the understanding of any morphological and stylistic variability and semiotic transformations to interpret any cultural dynamic process occurred in the Alpine area and beyond.
