Para além das muralhas, uma perspetiva dos recursos faunísticos no Calcolítico da Estremadura: o conjunto arqueofaunístico do Locus 5 do Penedo do Lexim (Mafra)

Abstract

[PT] O presente trabalho descreve e analisa o espólio arqueofaunístico recuperado no Locus 5 do povoado fortificado do Penedo do Lexim, Mafra datado no Calcolítico Pleno (sem campaniforme). Foram identificados 1532 restos pertencentes na sua maioria a mamíferos. A considerável contribuição de animais domésticos, em especial ovicaprinos e suídeos (fundamentalmente porcos), indicia a importância das atividades agro-pastoris entre as comunidades humanas estabelecidas neste espaço durante o III milénio a.C. O reduzido número de restos de gado bovino, quando comparado com outros conjuntos contemporâneos do entorno, é discutido no marco de várias hipóteses de trabalho. Com o objetivo de melhorar o nosso conhecimento sobre quais foram os recursos aproveitados das principais espécies ganadeiras realizamos um estudo comparado das idades de abate. No caso dos ovicaprinos evidencia-se uma clara mudança em relação ao Neolítico Final, o aproveitamento prioritário de carne é substituído pela exploração dalguns dos chamados produtos secundários, previsivelmente o leite e o estrume. Por último, avalia-se o reduzido papel das atividades cinegéticas na economia local e apontamos as diferenças e semelhanças com outros espólios faunísticos do Calcolítico da Estremadura e do Alentejo

[EN] In this paper we describe and analyze the faunal remains recovered from Locus 5 at the fortified settlement of Penedo do Lexim, Mafra dated to the Middle Chalcolithic (without Bell Beaker). Most of the 1532 remains identified belong to mammals. The outstanding contribution of domestic animals, in particular caprines and suids (mainly pigs), suggests the importance of agro-pastoral activities among the people settled there over the 3rd millennium BC. The low number of cattle compared to other contemporary assemblages of the surroundings is discussed taking into account different working hypotheses. With the aim of improving our knowledge on which the resources used from the main husbanded species were we conducted a comparative study of the age-at-death profiles. In the case of caprines there is clear evidence for change since the Late Neolithic: the meat priority pattern is substituted by the exploitation of some of the so called ‘secondary products’, presumably milk and dung. Lastly, we evaluate the scarce role of hunting activities in the local economy while some differences and similarities with other Chalcolithic faunal assemblages from the Estremadura and Alentejo regions are noted
