At Cisterna, the thin Holocene deposit was unstratified; at Caldeir\u00e3o, the stratigraphic sequence underwent post-depositional disturbance. Using radiocarbon dating, typological considerations, spatial distribution patterns, and physical anthropological data, these palimpsests can be disentangled to a significant extent. At both sites, the earliest depositions fall in the <jats:italic>c.<\/jats:italic> 5250\u20135500\u2009cal BC interval and are associated with large numbers of beads. Wares extensively decorated with shell and comb impressions are likely to belong in this phase. Another style of decoration\u2009\u2013\u2009shell impressions forming bands below the rim and garlands between prehension knobs\u2009\u2013\u2009probably dates to a slightly later time. Burial continued at both sites through the <jats:italic>c.<\/jats:italic> 5000\u20135250\u2009cal BC time range, but which decorative styles were then in fashion remains difficult to ascertain; it is likely that the irregular arrangements of shell impressions seen in some Cisterna vessels are among them. At Caldeir\u00e3o, non-Cardial impressed and incised wares date to <jats:italic>c.<\/jats:italic> 4500\u20135000\u2009cal BC, while undecorated wares are associated with human bone samples demonstrating two different periods of burial during the <jats:italic>c.<\/jats:italic> 3500\u20134000\u2009cal BC interval. Most if not all of the nine Cardial individuals directly dated at the two sites died coevally with the more recent of the Mesolithic interments found in the shell-midden sites of the Tagus estuary.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1515\/opar-2020-0163","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,31]],"date-time":"2021-07-31T22:01:55Z","timestamp":1627768915000},"page":"747-764","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["New Evidence from Galeria da Cisterna (Almonda) and Gruta do Caldeir\u00e3o on the Phasing of Central Portugal\u2019s Early Neolithic"],"prefix":"10.1515","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Jo\u00e3o","family":"Zilh\u00e3o","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituci\u00f3 Catalana de Recerca i Estudis Avan\u00e7ats (ICREA), Passeig Llu\u00eds Companys 23 , 08010 Barcelona , Spain"},{"name":"Departament d\u2019Hist\u00f2ria i Arqueologia, Facultat de Geografia i Hist\u00f2ria, Universitat de Barcelona , c\/Montalegre 6 , 08001 Barcelona , Spain"},{"name":"UNIARQ\u2009\u2013\u2009Centro de Arqueologia da Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Letras de Lisboa, Universidade de Lisboa, Alameda da Universidade , 1600-214 Lisboa , Portugal"}]}],"member":"374","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"2022021115012453553_j_opar-2020-0163_ref_001","unstructured":"Barnett, W.
