Arqueologia de Las Comunidades Rurales En La Peninsula Iberica

Arqueologia de las comunidades rurales en la Peninsula Iberica brings us closer to various communities that inhabited the rural space of the Iberian Peninsula in the past. Based on the data obtained through prospecting and excavation, each chapter offers a panoramic and up-to-date overview of the archaeology of rural communities. To this end, it looks at the spatial organisation of the settlements and their relationship with their environment, as well as other aspects such as religious beliefs, trade and exchange systems, the exploitation of natural resources and the socio-economic transformations that occurred over time. In this way, and thanks to the study of the archaeological material recovered, it has been possible to draw a detailed picture of the daily life and cultural practices of Iberian rural communities from prehistoric times to the present day. The value of this book lies not only in presenting unpublished archaeological information and its subsequent historical interpretation, but also in showing an integral vision of scientific knowledge, understanding archaeology as a tourist and cultural dynamiser, a way to generate interest and attachment to the past of the space we inhabit. It is, therefore, an example of how history should be public and collective.
