| الوصف: | Research on the Iberomaurusian has significantly increased in recent years, resulting in a better overall understanding of this period. However, studies focusing on human-animal relationships are still rare, especially for the exploitation of marine resources, which is paradoxical as most of the sites are located in coastal areas. In this work, we re-evaluate the marine malacofauna from the 1930s excavation of the Abri Alain rock shelter (Oran, Algeria), currently located five kilometers from the Mediterranean shore. The results obtained record the exploitation of marine resources by recent Iberomaurusian populations (~15 ka cal. BP). This malacofauna was used for subsistence but also as ornamentation. The consumed molluscs (Patellidae, Mytilidae, Trochidae) are characteristic of the intertidal zone of rocky shores. These species were probably gathered during low tides. Shells used as ornamentation (Dentaliidae, Glycymerididae, Cardiidae, Turritellidae) were originated from secondary locations. |
