Abstract
Presentamos la documentación y estudio del denominado Dolmen de arroyo de las Sileras publicado en la década de 1930 y posteriormente desaparecido. Descrito inicialmente como un conjunto compuesto por fragmentos de ortostatos con graba-dos de espirales y círculos concéntricos, se presentó como un unicumen el contexto del sur de Iberia. Su ‘redescubrimiento’ nos ha permitido desarrollar una prospección arqueológica pedestre, dibujo arqueológico convencional, fotogrametría, anastilosis digital y análisis morfológico virtual. Los resultados aportan datos inéditos sobre los soportes grabados para discutir la interpre-tación del sitio. La prospección ha revelado concentraciones próximas de restos cerámicos datables entre el Neolítico Antiguo y el inicio de la Edad del Cobre. En conjunto, los soportes grabados de las Sileras se integran en un paisaje cultural más rico y complejo de lo esperable en el Guadalquivir Medio durante la Prehistoria Reciente
In this study, we present the documentary evidence and study of the so-called Arroyo de las Sileras dolmen, published in the 1930s but that later disappeared. Initially described as an assemblage composed of fragments of orthostats with engrav-ings of spirals and concentric circles, it was presented as a unicum in the context of southern Iberia. Its ‘rediscovery’ has allowed us to undertake a walkover survey, conventional archaeological drawing, photogrammetry, digital anastylosis, and virtual mor-phological analysis. The results provide unpublished data on the engraved slabs, facilitating a discussion of the interpretation of the site. Archaeological survey has revealed assemblages of pottery remains dating from the Early Neolithic to the Early Copper Age. As a whole, Las Sileras group are part of a richer and more complex cultural landscape than was expected in the Middle Guadalquivir Valley during Late Prehistory
