Resumo(s)
This study addressed all the Early Neolithic mammal remains recovered from Encosta de Sant’Ana during the excavations conducted between 2004 and 2006, mainly from Sector E. The faunal record studied in this paper suggests that this was a community that occupied the site on a seasonal basis, as indicated by the considerable amount of hunted fauna. Rabbits are particularly noteworthy, followed by deer and possibly wild boar and, although to a much lesser extent, aurochs, suggesting territories that were essentially forest or Mediterranean scrubland, with occasional open spaces. As far as domestic cattle are concerned, the scarcity of bovines is also indicative of limited sedentation.
