Resumo: The remains collected by Hipólito Cabaço in the 1950s, following the exploration of the cave of Pedra Furada 1 are presented here. The review of the archaeological and osteological material, the later human and faunal, showed that the cave has been visited and used intermittently between the transition from the fourth and third millennia BC; in the middle and second half of the same millennium, as well as during the second millenium BC. Finaly a specific context was atributed to the Sixteenth Century. Of those periods, the first was associated to a collective funerary use, evidenced by radiocarbon dating of an individual’s bone, but it is plausible that the second period also have been mortuary. However the funerary practice in the second millennium BC is not as certain and might be associated with cavernous cults. And this doubt extends to the modern case. The anthropological study estimated globally a minimum of 34 individuals, 10 adults and 24 not adults of both sexes deposited in this cave.

Isto porque nem sempre estas revisões permitem reconstruir com exactidão a conjuntura que originou aquela colheita e, menos ainda, em que contextos estratigráficos se encontravam os objectos que nos chegaram. Talvez por isso, alguns arqueólogos desvalorizem estes estudos, enaltecendo os dados provenientes de escavações recentes com registos contextuais, teoricamente, mas nem sempre, mais rigorosos e fidedignos. Porém, os velhos dados, quando cruzados com esses dados recentes e enquadrados por novo questionário, permitem ampliar os nossos conhecimentos, acrescentando mais algumas peças a esse quebra-cabeças sempre incompleto do passado humano. O estudo aqui apresentado acerca dos achados da gruta de Pedra Furada 1 espelha esses limites e potencial.Câmara Municipal de Oeiras2014-09-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/otherinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://eao.oeiras.pt/index.php/DOC/article/view/268oai:openjournal.cm-oeiras.pt:article/268Estudos Arqueológicos de Oeiras; Vol. 21 (2014): Estudos Arqueológicos de Oeiras; 159-1820872-6086reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://eao.oeiras.pt/index.php/DOC/article/view/268https://eao.oeiras.pt/index.php/DOC/article/view/268/265Direitos de Autor (c) 2020 Estudos Arqueológicos de Oeirasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Ana MariaBoaventura, RuiPimenta, JoãoDetry, CleiaCardoso, João Luís2022-10-21T09:55:54Zoai:openjournal.cm-oeiras.pt:article/268Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:13:36.660176Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
