Summer fieldwork at Abric del Pastor and El Salt sites (Alcoy, Tenerife)

Carolina Mallol, Lucia Leierer and Rory Connolly working in Abric del Pastor

As every summer, archaeological excavations are carried out at Abric del Pastor and El Salt sites (Alcoy, Alicante) from July to the end of August. The work is part of a research project directed by Bertila Galván, Cristo Hernández and Carolina Mallol and funded by the Spanish Ministry Economy and Competitivity (MINECO).

ULL Media is currently preparing a documentary about  our work at the sites. Our goal is to show the general audience the different tasks that take place at a Palaeolithic excavation and the different lines of research that can provide information about the human past.
