Una aproximación cuantitativa al trabajo destinado a la arquitectura monumental en la Prehistoria reciente de la Meseta Norte española

Abstract: Resumen: La arquitectura monumental es una característica común a gran parte de las culturas prehistóricas y puede ser utilizada como un indicador apropiado para indagar en el tamaño del poder político responsable de su construcción. A través de la estimación del trabajo dedicado a los monumentos, que puede calcularse mediante la cuantificación de las construcciones identificadas en el registro arqueológico y la aplicación de coeficientes de transformación extraídos de la arqueología experimental o de observac… Show more

“…500–400 years), which proves that this trend does not only occur when dolmens are starting to appear. As a result, perhaps the true essence of the great passage tombs implies large pantheons intended to accommodate several generations of individuals and bring together different groups of inhabitants, something that undoubtedly would have occurred in order to construct tombs of this size (Renfrew 1976; Villalobos García 2014, 2016a; Schulz Paulsson 2019: 3462). At the same time, smaller or simpler monuments, which require the investing of less energy, could have been aimed at smaller communities (Masset 1972; Chambon 2000).…”

“…According to the main authors, the evolution towards the monumental nature of the La Lora graves could reflect the internal dynamics of the neolithic communities that were settling in the northern regions. At first, the investing of time, effort and technology that is needed for constructing the great monumental tombs is not required (Delibes de Castro 1995; Delibes de Castro and Rojo-Guerra 2002; Delibes de Castro 2010; Villalobos García 2016a). In addition, these early stages represent closed, and perhaps abandoned, architectural solutions, giving way to large passage tombs (Delibes de Castro 2010: 31).…”

“…El marco cronológico de este estudio se corresponde con el periodo de construcción de los dólmenes, que pudo ser superior a dos milenios (López- Romero, 2017;Boaventura & Mataloto, 2013;García et al, 2011García et al, , 2022, ya que el objetivo principal del trabajo es comprender por qué se eligió una determinada ubicación en el espacio en el momento de su construcción y no el uso funerario que se le dio al monumento en etapas posteriores. Este ámbito temporal se enmarca en el Neolítico, y se podría restringir entre finales del V y el III milenio cal BC (calibrado antes de Cristo), periodo que se corresponde con su máxima expansión constructiva (Carrera & Fábregas, 2008;Delibes & Santonja, 1986;González, 2014;Villalobos, 2016), sin olvidar que los megalitos fueron utilizados después de ser abandonados e incluso inutilizados por el bloqueo con piedras en los pasillos de acceso, incendios, demoliciones deliberadas y otros métodos (Delibes de Castro, 2004).…”

“…A complementary and more accurate estimation of the relevance given to defensive earthworks would come from a quantification of the amount of labour involved in their construction. This is a long standing, relevant issue in archaeological research (Abrams and Bolland, 1999) that has received a strong impetus in the last years thanks to the increasing availability of high resolution data to calculate the volume of raw matter mobilized for the construction of different types of artificial features such as walls, ditches, ramparts, mounds… (Freeland et al, 2016;Magnani and Schroder, 2015;Villalobos García, 2016;Xie et al, 2015).…”
