Abstract

This work presents bony industry objects and ornaments recovered from the site Forat de Conqueta. The recovered bone industry is composed of three instruments and two spatulas. Ornament objects have been made of raw mineral bone and malacofauna. Malacofauna corresponds to allochthonous material transported over 150 km in opposite to other materials originally local.
