Archaeology and ancient environmental studies

Excavations carried out in a basement of downtown Lisbon, in the Archaeological Centre of Rua dos Correeiros, allowed the identification of several archaeological contexts, namely of residential and industrial type, dated from the 5 th century to early 4 th century BC.These contexts provided a remarkable set of mammalogical and malacological remains.In the case of mammals most elements came from domestic animals (cattle, sheep, goat, pig, horse and dog), with a reduced representation of hunted animals (red deer).The presence of shellfish demonstrates the use of water resources.These results allow mainly the reconstitution of the diet and, through it, economic and even social characteristics of the respective segment of the population who then habited the riverside area of the city.
