“…There is currently general agreement that early humans occupied the Orce area between 1.3 and 1.2 million years ago, based on a limited number of stone tools and on evidence of anthropic actions on bones detected at Venta Micena quarry 3 [ 31 ]. Additional evidence has come from nearby sites: two human deciduous molars, probably belonging to the same individual, were discovered at the Barranco Leon site [ 32 , 33 , 34 ], and stone artefacts were found at the Fuentenueva-3a and Barranco León-5 sites [ 35 , 36 ]. However, as often occurs in paleoanthropology, the Orce fossils became the subject of intense controversy [ 37 ].…”

“…This site, alongside the nearby locality of Fuente Nueva 3, presents evidence of hominin behaviour, including the earliest lithic assemblages documented in the Iberian Peninsula (Turq et al, 1996;Gibert et al, 1998;Barsky et al, 2010Barsky et al, , 2015Titton et al, 2019Titton et al, , 2020Titton et al, , 2021Toro-Moyano et al, 2009, 2010aYravedra et al, 2021). Barranco León has also produced hominin remains, specifically a mandibular left dm1 (Toro Moyano et al, 2013, although see also Gibert et al, 1999;Ribot et al, 2015). Bone modifications by biotic agents, including hominins, have also been documented at the site Espigares et al, 2019).…”

“…1.2 -1.1 Ma (Bermúdez de Carbonell et al 2008;de Lombera-Hermida et al 2015;Huguet et al 2017;Parés et al 2006;Rosas et al 2006), and at the eastern Andalusian sites of Barranco León-5, where tooth fragments assigned to Homo sp. were found, and Fuente Nueva-3, which dated from 1.4 -1.2 Ma (Álvarez et al, 2015;Barsky et al, 2015;Carbonell and Rodríguez, 2006;de Lumley et al, 2009;Duval et al, 2012a,b;Fajardo 2009;Gibert, J. et al, 1998;1999a,b, 2001Martínez-Navarro et al, 1997;Oms et al, 2000;Ribot et al, 2015;Toro-Moyano et al, 2003, 2011. Different conjectures have been put forward about how often Early Pleistocene Homo was present in western Europe, about possibly available routes of access from Africa, and about what were the corresponding technological behaviours (Bar-Yosef and Belfer Cohen, 2001;Carrión and Walker, 2019;Galliotti and Mussi, 2018;Gibert, L. et al, 2016;Gonen, 2006: Goren-Inbar et al, 2000;Hovers and Braun, 2009;Ollé et al, 2016;Sharon and Barsky, 2016;Shea, 2013Shea, , 2016Vallverdú et al, 2014;Walker, 2017).…”
