Iron Age combustion structures in the north-eastern Iberian Peninsula: an interdisciplinary experimental study

The aim of this research is to investigate the efficiency of combustion structures, the fuels used, the structure maintenance and the range of related domestic activities. An experimental programme was carried out in which replicas of archaeological Iron Age combustion structures were put to work. B...
