Abstract

The present study aims at a better understanding of personal ornaments during the Late Paleolithic and Mesolithic transitions. The approach consists of a combination of the shell beads and pendants from Santa Maira (Alacant) and the information from the Mediterranean façade of the Iberian Peninsula, including the Ebro valley, allowing a systematic evaluation of species richness from a spatio-temporal perspective. An assessment of access to the source and its impact on diversity was also carried out. The results show a continuity between the Late Paleolithic and the Epipaleolithic, as well as a period of cultural break with the Mesolithic. Similar patterns have been documented during the same periods from lithic production studies and may indicate a change in social interactions and/or cultural boundaries.

过渡中的个人点缀。伊比利亚地中海地区旧石器时代-中石器时代的最终数据（16.5 - 7千卡BP）

本研究旨在更好地了解旧石器时代晚期和中石器时代过渡时期的个人饰品。该方法结合了来自Santa Maira （Alacant）的贝壳珠和垂坠，以及来自伊比利亚半岛地中海farade（包括Ebro河谷）的信息，从时空角度对物种丰富度进行了系统评估。还对获取来源及其对多样性的影响进行了评估。结果表明，在晚旧石器时代和上石器时代之间存在连续性，同时也与中石器时代有一段文化断裂时期。在同一时期的石器生产研究中也记录了类似的模式，这可能表明社会互动和/或文化界限的变化。

期刊介绍： Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences covers the full spectrum of natural scientific methods with an emphasis on the archaeological contexts and the questions being studied. It bridges the gap between archaeologists and natural scientists providing a forum to encourage the continued integration of scientific methodologies in archaeological research. Coverage in the journal includes: archaeology, geology/geophysical prospection, geoarchaeology, geochronology, palaeoanthropology, archaeozoology and archaeobotany, genetics and other biomolecules, material analysis and conservation science. The journal is endorsed by the German Society of Natural Scientific Archaeology and Archaeometry (GNAA), the Hellenic Society for Archaeometry (HSC), the Association of Italian Archaeometrists (AIAr) and the Society of Archaeological Sciences (SAS).
