Abstract

AMS radiocarbon dating has been widely applied in Palaeolithic art research and its value has been proven over the past three decades. Yet it still suffers from issues that need to be discussed and analysed to improve future sampling strategies and strengthen the interpretation of the results. This study presents new AMS dates for the parietal art in Cueva de Las Chimeneas in northern Spain, describes the quality of the samples, and discusses their reliability. The joint assessment of the dates and its comparison with previously obtained dates as well as stratified and dated portable art makes it possible to put forward a hypothesis about the time of creation of the cave's parietal art and the degree of synchrony or diachrony in its production. Consequently, it is proposed that the cave art at Las Chimeneas was created in the lower Magdalenian, between 19,000 and 17,500 cal bp.

Las Chimeneas (Cantabria, Spain)旧石器时代洞穴艺术的放射性碳年代测定:放射性碳的质量及其与顶壁艺术的相关性

AMS放射性碳定年法在旧石器时代艺术研究中得到了广泛的应用，其价值在过去的三十年中得到了证明。然而，它仍然存在需要讨论和分析的问题，以改进未来的抽样策略并加强对结果的解释。本研究提出了西班牙北部Cueva de Las Chimeneas顶板艺术的新AMS日期，描述了样品的质量，并讨论了它们的可靠性。通过对这些日期的联合评估，并与之前获得的日期以及分层和定年的便携式艺术进行比较，可以对洞穴壁艺术的创作时间以及其生产的共时性或历时性程度提出假设。因此，有人提出，拉斯奇米纳斯的洞穴艺术创作于下马格达莱尼期，大约在19,000至17,500 cal bp之间。

期刊介绍： The publication organ of the European Association of Archaeologists, the European Journal of Archaeology seeks to promote open debate amongst archaeologists committed to a new idea of Europe in which there is more communication across national frontiers and more interest in interpretation. The journal accepts not only new empirical data and new interpretations of the past but also encourages debate about the role archaeology plays in society, how it should be organized in a changing Europe, and the ethics of archaeological practice. All periods are covered; papers, review articles, interviews and short "debate" pieces are all sought. Whilst English is the primary language of publication in the EJA, papers submitted in French or German will be given equal consideration.
