Abstract
Este trabajo recoge el estudio de los micromamíferos de los lechos superiores
(ca. 3695-4414 cal BP) de la Cueva de Arenaza I (Galdames, Bizkaia),
excavados entre 1991 y 1993 y recuperados recientemente del depósito
provincial. El conjunto de restos corresponde al menos a 14 especies diferentes
de micromamíferos, nueve de ellas pertenecientes al Orden Rodentia
y cinco al Orden Eulipotyphla. Los datos paleoecológicos de los tres lechos
indican un claro predominio de masas forestales, siendo el lecho 9 en
el que mayor extensión presentan. Por ende, probablemente es en ese momento
cuando tendrían lugar las condiciones ambientales más cálidas y húmedas
de todo el registro
The study of the small mammals from the uppermost layers (ca. 3695- 4414 cal BP) from Arenaza I Cave (Galdames, Bizkaia) is reported in this paper. Even if the archaeological works were carried out between 1991 and 1993, the sediment has been recovered from the provincial deposit. A total of 14 species have been identified, nine belonging to the Order Rodentia and five to Order Eulipotyphla. Palaeoecological data obtained for the three layers indicate a clear predominance of forest, being the layer 9 where it was most extended. Therefore it was probably at that time when the most humid conditions and mild temperatures took place
