Los procesos t?cnicos de la canter?a durante la Segunda Edad del Hierro en el occidente de la meseta

Abstract

Este art?culo trata de reconstruir los procesos t?cnicos implicados en los trabajos de canter?a realizados por las comunidades de la Meseta occidental durante la Segunda Edad del Hierro. Para ello, se ha acudido tanto a datos arqueol?gicos como etnogr?ficos. De esta manera, se analizan las caracter?sticas del granito, el proceso de extracci?n en la cantera, los posibles medios de transporte, las herramientas utilizadas y el proceso de labra, centrado en la realizaci?n de los famosos ?verracos?. Estos aspectos t?cnicos resultan fundamentales a la hora de estudiar los productos finales elaborados en granito y son el primer paso para lograr un mayor conocimiento sobre el papel desempe?ado por los canteros dentro de las sociedades protohist?ricas del occidente peninsular.

This paper reconstructs the technical processes involved in producing the stone works made by the communities of Western Iberia during the Late Iron Age. For this study, we use both archaeological and ethnographic data. We analyze the characteristics of granite, the extraction process in the quarry, the available means of transport, the tools used and the carving process, focusing analysis on the zoomorphic sculptures known as ?verracos?. Assessment of these technical aspects is essential for the analysis of the finished products and constitutes a first step in better understanding the status of stonemasons within the protohistoric societies of the Western Iberian Peninsula.
