| Omschrijving: | We present the preliminary description of a chance find made in Jimena de la Frontera (Cádiz, Spain), which demonstrates the existence of a human coastal habitat. Thanks to the parallels of the surroundings, we can determine some hypotheses about the determination of each element that we will talk about. We are struck by the appearance of red and black cave paintings with representations of Laja Alta-type boats, also a site located in Jimena de la Frontera, as well as numerous human and animal footprints fossilized in the rock, in the vicinity of a possible altar. All of this we proceeded to meticulously analyze it thanks to the analysis of the photographs taken, applying the hypothetical deductive method regarding the investigation of human occupation related to the south of the Iberian Peninsula. Given the importance of the fortuitous discovery, we proceeded to communicate it to the Delegation of Culture of the Junta de Andalucía (Spain) who take the necessary steps to classify this site. |
