Abstract

This paper is divided into three sections. The first section describes the historiographic evolution of the study of prehistoric lithic raw materials in the Basque Crossroads (in the north of the Iberian Peninsula) during the last three decades. The second section explains the currently available information about geological outcrops of flint in the eastern end of the Cantabrian Mountain range (the BasqueCantabrian Basin), the upper Ebro valley and both sides of the western Pyrenees, in the central part of the northern Iberian Peninsula, as that was the main raw material used by hunter-gatherer groups in the Middle and Upper Palaeolithic. Finally, the last section describes the way in which progress in both aspects of research have enabled the introduction of new concepts and perspectives in the reconstruction of the social and economic dynamics of Palaeolithic hunter-gatherers. This has given rise to an innovative methodology that is able to address and solve important issues, particularly regarding mobility and territoriality patterns of those human groups, allowing the proposal of mobility and territoriality models that, while they will not match exactly the systems used by Upper Palaeolithic communities, represent significant progress in understanding the social and economic dynamics of hunter-gatherer groups.
向前迈出了一大步。巴斯克十字路口旧石器时代狩猎采集者的石器原材料采购和管理
本文分为三个部分。第一节描述了过去三十年来巴斯克十字路口(伊比利亚半岛北部)史前石器原材料研究的历史演变。第二节解释了目前可获得的关于坎塔布里安山脉东端(巴斯克-坎塔布里亚盆地)、埃布罗河谷上游和比利牛斯山脉西部两侧、伊比利亚半岛北部中部的燧石地质露头的信息,因为这是旧石器时代中晚期猎人群体使用的主要原料。最后,最后一节描述了这两个方面的研究进展如何能够在重建旧石器时代狩猎采集者的社会和经济动态中引入新的概念和视角。这产生了一种创新的方法,能够解决和解决重要问题,特别是与这些人类群体的流动性和属地模式有关的问题,允许提出流动性和地域模式,尽管它们与旧石器时代晚期社区使用的系统不完全匹配,代表着在理解狩猎采集群体的社会和经济动态方面取得的重大进展。
