“…Se interpreta una transición entre un nivel de playa basal y un depósito eólico dunar superior (facies 1), interrumpido por dos episodios energéticos, muy probablemente correspondientes a abanicos de desbordamiento o de derrame (overwash deposits). La datación obtenida proporciona una edad muy elevada, anterior al máximo eustático Holoceno (Zazo et al, 2008), por lo que creemos que se trata de un resultado erróneo.…”

“…Según Zazo et al (2008), el ascenso postglaciar del nivel del mar ocurrió en el sur de España en dos fases: una primera etapa de rápida subida hasta 6500 cal BP, y una fase posterior de deceleración o casi estabilidad, con oscilaciones menores de carácter mé-trico. Asociados a ellos se generaron seis eventos progradantes de cordones litorales (Zazo, 2006;Zazo et al, 2008): H 1 (7400-6000 años BP); H 2 (5400-4200 años BP); H 3 (4000-3000 años BP); H 4 (2700-1900 años BP); H 5 (1900-1300 años BP) y H 6 (últimos 500 años).…”

Según Goy et al (2003) cada unidad H experimentó progradación durante fases de subida del nivel del mar, mientras que los surcos que separan unas unidades de otras se formaron durante etapas de nivel del mar bajo, correspondientes a eventos Bond, asociados a episodios climáticos fríos (Zazo et al, 2008). En el sistema de cordones litorales de Doñana se identifican únicamente cuatro unidades (Zazo et al, 1994(Zazo et al, , 1996Rodríguez Ramírez et al, 1996;Rodríguez Vidal et al, 2014): H 1 (6900-4500 años BP); H 2 (4200-2600 años BP); H 3 (2300-1100 años BP) y H 4 (últimos 1000 años).…”

“…Si bien hasta el presente se admite que las fases más antiguas (equivalentes a los episodios H 1 y H 2 de Zazo et al, 2008) no están presentes en la bahía gaditana (Dabrio et al, 2000), existen depósitos antiguos al este de Valdelagrana que podrían corresponderse con restos de la primera de estas unidades. Unos en el sector norte (6680 BP.…”

The bay of Cádiz is a coastal area intensively occupied during prehistorical and historical times from which many archaeological remains have been preserved. The bay is a low coast characterized by several spit-barrier systems which close wide estuarine marshes. This kind of coastal environment is especially vulnerable to marine energetic events, like storms and tsunamis, which have occurred in the region during the late Holocene with some regularity. The present work summarizes the different morphosedimentary records of historical marine events identified in the Bay up to date. New chronological and stratigraphical data are presented, obtained from drills, together with different geoarchaeological indicators of historical marine events identified along the Bay. Special attention is paid on the effects produced on the Valdelagrana spit-barrier, where the geometry and age of different historical beach ridges reveal the onset of at least three very energetic events, probably of tsunamigenic origin: one on 2700-2300 cal BP, a second one by the end of the IX century AD and the third one in 1755 AD. The two first events caused deep geomorphological modifications, like river captures, onset of new beach ridge systems, and coastal lowering. Archaeological data indicate that economical effects and infrastructure damage produced by these events conditioned later human occupation and related activities.

Mid‐ to late Holocene environmental changes and human‐environment interactions in the surroundings of La Silla del Papa, SW Spain

In southern Iberia, the surroundings of the Strait of Gibraltar are known as a crossroad for population movements, cultural exchanges, and trade from Late Prehistory to modern times. However, questions remain about the impact of this historical development on the environment. The settlement of La Silla del Papa, an important hillfort in southern Andalusia (Cádiz), was occupied during the entire Iron Age, replaced by the coastal town Baelo Claudia during Roman times, and re‐occupied during Early Medieval times. As such, La Silla del Papa and its territory represent an ideal location for long‐term studies on human‐environment interactions. Within the framework of the interdisciplinary project “Archeostraits,” geoarchaeological investigations in the surroundings of La Silla del Papa aimed at constraining ecological conditions and human‐environment interactions during the mid‐ and late Holocene and during major human occupation phases. Our results document an early mid‐Holocene marine embayment in the lower floodplain of the Río del Cachón, rapidly turning into a coastal lagoon and later into freshwater‐dominated wetlands. After approximately 2100 BP (c. 150 BC), fluvial and alluvial deposition i600ing a high anthropogenic impact on the local landscape during Roman or post‐Roman times. Palynological results reveal fluctuating agricultural and pastoral activities and distinct periods of landscape opening during the Neolithic and Iron Age.
