Inhalt
Grotte des Pigeons, Taforalt (Morocco), is one of the most famous cave sites in North Africa. We present new findings on the Iberomaurusian hunter-gatherer inhabitants who faced major challenges of a rapidly changing climate.
In this volume we describe archaeological evidence covering the period 23,000 to 12,500 years ago. We examine the nature of environmental and behavioural changes, culminating in a major broadening of the food spectrum at around 15,000 years ago, linked to technological innovation in some aspects but conservatism in others. The cave also came to be used as a substantial human cemetery, enabling us to explore burial practices and recover additional information on diet and life-styles.
