洞穴和岩石掩体的填充物通常包括复杂的沉积层，使得精细的年代分辨率非常困难。尽管如此，这些背景在考古学中仍然非常重要，因为它们通常保存了文化变迁的长期记录。西地中海地区最初出现粮食生产经济体就是如此。洞穴和庇护所沉积物的年代学性质模糊不清，这是对该地区新石器时代开始的过程持续争论的原因之一。我们采用埋藏研究的古动物记录中石器时代和新石器时代早期的洞穴和庇护所网站在地中海西班牙解开一些影响相关存款的形成过程，以更好地了解文化变迁的过程，导致农业社区的传播。
The fills of caves and rockshelters generally comprise complex depositional palimpsests, making fine scale chronological resolution extremely difficult. Nevertheless, these settings remain very important in archaeology because they often preserve long records of cultural change. This is true for the initial appearance of food producing economies in the western Mediterranean. The chronologically ambiguous nature of cave and shelter deposits is one of the reasons for the continued debate over the processes responsible for the beginning of the Neolithic in this region. We employ taphonomic studies of the archeofaunal record from Mesolithic and early Neolithic cave and shelter sites in Mediterranean Spain to disentangle some of the formation processes affecting relevant deposits in order to better understand the processes of cultural change that led to the spread of agricultural communities.
