O Barranco do Farinheiro (Coruche) e a presença campaniforme na margem esquerda do baixo Tejo

Abstract

The archaeological site of Barranco do Farinheiro corresponds to a set of different chalcolithic occupation areas located on the edge of the Mio-Pliocenic escarpement overhanging the alluvial plain of the Sorraia River. The excavation works were focused exclusively on Area 2 (BFR-2) and allowed to identify a negative feature filled with an interesting sedimentation sequence. Two moments of occupation/use are discernible: a first one, represented on the lower levels of the colmatation sequence; a second one, represented on the upper levels, already dated from the second half of the 3rd millennium BCE. This second occupation/use episode is characterized by the presence of decorated pottery of the «acacia-leaf» group, stratigraphically associated with beaker pottery (plain and decorated). Based on the data collected in Barranco do Farinheiro, the authors rehearse a preliminary attempt to characterize the beaker occupations on the left bank of the lower Tagus River, showing that the scarcity of sites therein identified (in opposition to the intense occupation known on the right bank) could be probably explained by archaeographic contingencies, not exactly by a lack of effective use of the territory.

O Barranco do Farinheiro corresponde a um conjunto de vários núcleos de ocupação calcolítica situados no rebordo da escarpa mio-pliocénica sobranceira à planície aluvionar do Sorraia. Os trabalhos arqueológicos, incidindo exclusivamente no núcleo 2 (BFR-2), permitiram identificar uma estrutura negativa com uma sequência de sedimentação bastante interessante. São distinguíveis dois momentos de ocupação/utilização: o primeiro, representado pelos níveis inferiores de colmatação. O segundo, representado pelos níveis superiores, está datado da segunda metade do 3.º milénio a.n.e. Este segundo momento de ocupação/utilização é caracterizado pela presença de cerâmicas decoradas do grupo «folha de acácia», às quais se encontram estratigraficamente associadas cerâmicas campaniformes (lisas e decoradas). Com base nos dados recolhidos no Barranco do Farinheiro, ensaia-se uma tentativa de caracterização das ocupações campaniformes na margem esquerda do baixo Tejo, avançando-se que a escassez de sítios até ao momento registada (contrapondo-se à densa ocupação eliminada na margem direita) poderá ser resultado de contingências arqueográficas, e não propriamente de uma efectiva ausência de ocupação do espaço.
