El uso de brazaletes de piedra es uno de los fenomenos arqueologicos mas destacado asociado a las primeras sociedades neoliticas en gran parte del Occidente Mediterraneo. Estos adornos se relacionan con el Neolitico Antiguo, caracterizado por el horizonte de las ceramicas decoradas cardiales y otras impresiones. En este libro se presenta el estudio petrologico, tecnologico, tipologico y traceologico realizado a estos adornos en la peninsula iberica. Estos analisis han permitido identificar culturalmente, a partir del uso, distribucion y produccion de los brazaletes, dos grupos culturales con un desarrollo social diferente y paralelo. Estos grupos son los tradicionalmente denominados como el Neolitico andaluz y el Neolitico valenciano. La distribucion geografica y cronologica de los brazaletes los convierte en un definidor cultural de las sociedades del Neolitico Inicial en estos ambitos geograficos. De la misma forma, su artesania, circulacion y uso permite determinar parte del devenir socioeconomico de estas primeras poblaciones neoliticas. The use of stone bracelets is one of the most fascinating archaeological phenomena associated with the first Neolithic societies in most of the Western Mediterranean. These adornments are associated with the Early Neolithic, characterised by the advent of pottery with cardial and other impressed decorations. This book presents a petrological, technological, typological and traceological study of these bracelets in the Iberian Peninsula. Through these analyses, based on the use, distribution and production of the bracelets, the author identifies two cultural groups with different and parallel social developments. These groups are those traditionally known as the 'Andalusian Neolithic' and the 'Valencian Neolithic'. The geographic and chronological distribution of the bracelets makes them a cultural marker of Early Neolithic societies in these geographical areas. Similarly, analysis of their craftsmanship, circulation and use allows the author to determine aspects of the socioeconomic evolution of these first farming populations.
