| Sumario: | Here we present the preliminary results of the archaeological research in Ali Mustafá Cave. This site is one of several rockshelters used by hunter-gatherer groups for short-term occupations during the Pleistocene-Holocene transition. The data from this new early site supports previous research regarding the archaeological value of rock shelters with ephemeral occupations. In some cases, these shelters show evidence of recurrent occupations, and were located in a strategic position in relation with the surrounding mountain landscape. Due to its location with high visual dominance over the San Pedro Valley, this site was used as a stopover during movement through the intermontane valleys. |
