Abstract

The aim of this paper is to review the current state of research for the Early Neolithic (c.5000-c.4300cal BC) in Cantabrian Spain. Bayesian chronological models have been constructed to examine the neolithisation process and assess the role radiocarbon dates may play in understanding this period. The models suggest that the disappearance of hunter-gatherer societies took place after the first Neolithic groups were active in the region. These results agree with the archaeological record for the Early Neolithic and are compatible with a "mosaic" neolithisation process in which local Mesolithic groups clearly participated.
