This paper presents rock art as a collective action in which different strata of society took part, including children and subadults. Until recent decades archaeology of childhood has not been in the main focus of the archaeological research, much less the participation of those children in the artistic activity. The present study approaches the pa...

Objectives This study aims to conduct a thorough characterization of hand morphology. Employing a 2D geometric morphometric approach, we scrutinize individual fingers and the palm, delineating the ontogenetic trajectories for each biological sex and investigating the alterations that take place at various stages of human development. Materials and...

Las representaciones de manos pintadas son una expresión artística presentes en el arte rupestre de todo el mundo, en diferentes continentes y cronologías a lo largo de miles de años. Más allá de verlas como símbolos, deberíamos incluirlas en la temática antropomorfa por su inequívoca relación con el ser humano. No se trata de un motivo intensament...
