Abstract

A multi-analytical study has been carried out on a collection of white and coloured Iberian marbles. A total of 135 marble specimens were collected in Spain and Portugal from the Betic chain (Alhaurin de la Torre, Mijas, Macael), Ossa Morena (Alconera, Almaden de la Plata and Viana do Alentejo), and the Estremoz Anticline (Bencatel, Borba and Estremoz) areas. X-ray diffractometry and carbon and oxygen stable isotope analysis were carried out on these samples; 38 samples were also investigated by optical and scanning electron microscopy. The results provide a set of diagnostic parameters that allow discriminating the sampled marble quarries. The carbonate minerals composition is distinctive for the Mijas and Alhaurin de la Torre marbles; the isotopic analysis allows discriminating also between these two dolomitic marble quarries. The Ossa Morena and Estremoz Anticline marbles share a similar stable isotope composition; the accessory mineral content, the maximum grain size (MGS) and the fabric are particularly useful in the distinction between them. In the framework of archaeometric provenance studies on Thamusida (Kenitra, Morocco) Roman marble artefacts, a specific comparison between this new Iberian database and archaeological findings has been carried out. The hypothesis of commercial exchanges between the Iberian regions and Roman Morocco is supported by the results of the provenance study, which suggested the Almaden de la Plata and Mijas quarries as possible sources of raw materials for the production of archaeological artefacts.

Abstract

Lo studio si propone di analizzare aspetti dell’economia legati all’allevamento, alla caccia ed alla pesca di un insediamento di cui sono note archeologicamente la fase di frequentazione indigena-maora e quella relativa all’impianto ed all’abbandono del presidio militare di età imperiale. In età pre-romana l’attività di tipo pastorale appare rivolta soprattutto all’utilizzo dei suini; ampia, per il periodo di III-IV sec. d.C., risulta la presenza delle tre principali specie domestiche, bovini, ovicaprini e suini, con una predominanza della prima rispetto alle altre. La frequente attestazione di animali da tiro contribuirebbe a delineare una sostenuta economia di tipo agrario-estensiva nel territorio. Il confronto tra i due periodi storici considerati non mostrerebbe sostanziali variazioni, ad eccezione, in età imperiale, di un rafforzamento dell’agricoltura a scapito dell’allevamento suino, e dell’intensificazione di pratiche pastorali collegabili a pecore e capre. Di particolare interesse appare anche il ruolo svolto nell’economia e nell’artigianato del sito da faune proprie del Nord Africa (camelidi, grandi felidi) e dalla pesca.
