The Coves del Fem provide crucial new evidence of the transition from the last hunter-gatherers to early farming communities
14 07 2026
Archaeological work carried out at the Coves del Fem (Ulldemolins, Priorat)—located within the Serra de Montsant Natural Park—between 30 May and 28 June 2026, has yielded new evidence of exceptional interest for understanding the prehistory of the northeastern Iberian Peninsula. The campaign was conducted by a team of researchers from the Department of Prehistory at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) and the Milà i Fontanals Institution for Research in the Humanities of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC-IMF), with the support of the Ulldemolins Town Council and the Serra de Montsant Natural Park, as part of the four-year archaeology projects of the Catalan Ministry for Culture.
