Douglas Price and Eugénia Cunha, Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2015, Chapter Four, p. 45-58http://hdl.handle.net/10400.9/2964The identification of osteological evidence from the earliest excavation of Cabeço da Arruda in 1864, still preserved in two Lisbon museums, provides the occasion for a reminder of the importance of the burials in the history of European anthropology. The material is briefly summarized, together with a discussion on the location of the finds. An AMS analysis of a charcoal sample contained within a skull provides a date consonant with other evidence.engArqueologiaEscavações arqueológicasAntropologiaConcheirosMesolíticoMuge (concelho de Salvaterra de Magos, Portugal)Cabeço da Arruda (concelho de Salvaterra de Magos, Portugal)book part
