Análisis de residuos orgánicos y posibles contenidos en ánforas púnicas y turdetanas procedentes del valle del Guadalquivir

Abstract

RESUMEN: En este trabajo abordamos el estudio de los principales contenedores anfóricos que circularon en el Bajo Guadalquivir durante la II Edad ABSTRACT: This work presents the results of a study of amphorae contents in the Lower Guadalquivir Valley during the Second Iron Age. The questions addressed include the most common contents and, therefore, the most commonly commercialised products in Turdetanian markets. Both local (Pellicer B-C and Pellicer D) and Punic containers, especially from the Bay of Cadiz and its hinterland (T-8.2.1.1 and T-8.1.1.2), have been taken into consideration. The analysis of the remains recovered during the excavation of Calle Cilla (Alcalá de Río, Seville) and Vico (Marchena, Seville) reveal that amphorae T-8.1.1.2, manufactured in the rural areas of Cadiz, with the exception of those used for the storage and transport of salted products, were used to contain olive oil, as previously claimed, while 'Turdetanian' amphorae were multifunctional containers which could have been used to store a wide variety of products (olive oil, meat preserves, milk by-products) and/ or were reused.

Fatty Acids and Starch Identification within Minute Archaeological Fragments: Qualitative Investigation for Assessing Feasibility

“…In the study conducted by García et al (2017) [69], an analysis was undertaken on the bottoms and rims of amphorae, primarily utilized for the transportation of inadequately filtered or unfiltered olive oil within the Guadalquivir valley during the II Iron Age. Within this context, a significant accumulation of fatty matter residues was discovered on the rims of these vessels.…”

Before the Dressel 20: pottery workshops and olive oil amphorae of the Guadalquivir valley between the Late Republic and Augustan-Tiberian times

“…This is a similar process to that seen in other Spanish regions, mainly the northeastern coastal area of Hispania Citerior, where the establishment of an intensive agricultural system employing Roman methods was started at the very end of the 2nd c. BCE. 12 Niveau de Villedary and Mariñas 2002;Ferrer Albelda and García Fernández 2008;García Fernández and Ferrer Albelda 2011;García Vargas et al 2011;García Fernández et al 2016;García Fernández and Sáez Romero 2021. 9 For the Punic amphora types produced in southern Spain, see: Sáez Romero 2008.…”
