TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe an innovative methodology that uses computing tools available to any researcher to study the viewsheds of the graphic units in decorated caves and test its validity on the recently discovered rock art ensemble of Atxurra Cave, in Northern Spain.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the main Paleolithic lighting systems (e.g., wooden torches, portable fat lamps, and fireplaces) were characterized through empirical observations and experimental archeology in an endokarstic context.
Journal ArticleDOI
From cave geomorphology to Palaeolithic human behaviour: speleogenesis, palaeoenvironmental changes and archaeological insight in the Atxurra‐Armiña cave (northern Iberian Peninsula)

Quantifying accessibility to Palaeolithic rock art: methodological proposal for the study of human transit in Atxurra Cave (Northern Spain)
Iñaki Intxaurbe,Martin Arriolabengoa,Ma Ángeles Medina-Alcaide,Olivia Rivero,Joseba Rios-Garaizar,Sergio Salazar,Iñaki Líbano,Diego Garate +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, 3D models were employed in a GIS to process spatial information, calculate numerical cost values and estimate optimal transit routes or needed times to reach several sectors inside a cave, based on morphological features and movement types.
Journal ArticleDOI

Joseba Rios-Garaizar,José-Manuel Maíllo-Fernández,Ana B. Marín-Arroyo,Miguel Ángel Sánchez Carro,Sergio Salazar,Ma Ángeles Medina-Alcaide,Aixa San Emeterio,Luz Martínez de Pinillos,Diego Garate,Olivia Rivero +9 more
TL;DR: The cave of Hornos de la Pena contained one of the most relevant stratigraphic sequences for the study of the Middle and Upper Paleolithic in the Cantabrian Region, northern Iberia, as well as an important group of Paleolithic rock art.
