Abstract
Procedeu-se ao estudo de um hipogeu funerário
da Quinta do Castelo (Salvada, Beja), no qual tinha sido depositado um corpo em decúbito lateral,
acompanhado de dádivas funerárias que consistiam
num punção e num copo/taça tipo Odivelas. Após
se proceder à análise antropológica dos restos ósseos
do esqueleto inumado, foi o mesmo datado pelo radiocarbono, o que permitiu atribuir-lhe uma cronologia dos finais do primeiro quartel ou dos inícios
do segundo quartel do II Milénio a.C. Tendo em
atenção a datação obtida, bem como as características das dádivas funerárias registadas no hipogeu,
conjuntamente com outra evidência arqueológica,
designadamente no referente à variada tipologia
das estruturas funerárias características do Bronze
do Sudoeste e respectiva cronologia, procedeu-se a
uma revisão crítica da partição efectuada por Schubart (Bronze 1 e Bronze 2), a qual tem sido seguida,
na generalidade, até hoje
A funerary hypogeum at Quinta do Castelo (Salvada, Beja), in which a body was deposited in lateral decubitus, accompanied by grave goods consisting of an awl and an Odivelas cup, was studied. Following anthropological analysis of the skeletal remains, the individual was dated by radiocarbon, which allowed to assign a chronology of the end of the 1st quarter or of the beginning of the 2nd quarter of the 2nd Millennium BC to the burial. Taking into account this chronology, as well as the characteristics of the grave goods recorded in the hypogeum, together with other archaeological evidence, namely regarding the varied typology of the funerary structures characteristic of the Southwestern Bronze Age, a critical review of the Middle Bronze Age partition in Bronze 1 and 2, made by Schubart, which has generally been followed to date, was carried out
