Estudi de les restes humanes de la campanya 2000 de la Cova Foradà (Oliva, València)

Abstract

This study analyses seven fragments of human skull found in a Mousterial level of the Cova Foradà (Oliva, València, Spain). Six of them belong to an adult female individual and the seventh to a child 3 to 5 years old. Five of adult's pieces correspond to the neurocranium, and the smaller ones come from a torus supraorbitalis; the bigger one cosists of the frontal portion. The maxiliary suture is present, and the teeth 33, 34 and 36 as well. Through the features of the bones of the adult individual, we can attribute trhem to a Nean-Fossil man, Neanderthal, Mousterian, València, Spain.
