In his review of the MP-UP transition in Iberia, Zilhão (2021: 25) mistakenly altered the data presented in two of our recent publications (Benedetti et al. 2019; Haws et al. 2020) using an imprecise (rounded) datum elevation in Benedetti et al.(2019) to reconfigure the associations of artifact, bones, and radiocarbon dates at Lapa do Picareiro. He apparently read the statement,“Elevations in and around the cave are tied to a vertical datum (571 m above sea level)…”(Benedetti et al. 2019: 6) to mean the datum elevation is precisely 571.000 m asl. In fact, the datum elevation used throughout the excavation is 571.483 m asl. We reported elevations as either meters below this datum (mbd; Benedetti et al. 2019) or meters above sea level (m asl; Haws et al. 2020). The data presented in these articles are entirely consistent, with all points maintaining the same provenience and stratigraphic relationships relative to the fixed datum. Zilhão (2021: 25) used the incorrect datum of 571.000 m asl to recalculate the depths of radiocarbon dated bones, to redraft a stratigraphic diagram (Haws et al. 2020: Fig. 3), and to reinterpret the significance of the site.Zilhão (2021) could have easily determined the datum elevation from the radiocarbon dates we presented. For instance, noting that sample Wk-32219 was plotted at~ 565.1 m asl (565.083 m asl, to be precise) in Haws et al. 2020 (Fig. 3), one could simply add the corresponding depth of 6.40 mbd (Benedetti et al. 2019: Table 1) to arrive at an estimated datum elevation of~ 50 cm above 571.000 m asl.
