Abstract

The present paper presents the results that were obtained in the excavation carried out in the plot DOC-1 (SUNP-1) in the Archaeological Area of Marroquíes Bajos. The main contribution of this excavation in the context of all the research done in this archaeological area has to do with its Chalcolithic phase, in particular with the delimitation and documentation of the fifth ditch in an extension that was hitherto unknown. Along with this ditch, a fortified structure was also documented, which consisted of two walls and a semicircular hollow tower which was very likely to protect an entrance. Finally, the research has yielded the first data on the food and health of the people in this settlement by analysing a set of bone remains located on the bottom of the ditch.
