A ocupação do Bronze Final na Serra do Socorro (Mafra, Torres Vedras): os trabalhos arqueológicos de 2007 e 2008

Resumo

In this work we present the results of the excavations that took place in Serra do Socorro during 2007 and 2008, specifically in the area adjacent to the Ermida. Recent phases of occupation of this space caused serious affectations in the stratigraphy, especially with regard to the oldest chronological periods. Nevertheless, it was possible to identify a relatively well conserved subcircular domestic structure that can be associated to the Bronze Age final phase, as well as a significant set of archaeological materials of that same period. The artifacts exhumed in these two campaigns are easily integrated into the repertoires Portuguese Extremadura Late Bronze Age, emphasizing a fragment with burnished decoration, a small set of scythe elements and a dagger.
