Sumario:[EN] One of the contributions of Antonio Gilman to Prehistoric Archaeology is the Iberian Late Prehistory Radiocarbon Database (IDEArq-C14), a result of a systematic critical collection of archaeological radiocarbon dates in Iberia. It gathers over 10,000 dates from more than 2000 archaeological sites, mainly of Mesolithic to Iron Age chronologies. Nowadays, this information is freely accessible via the Internet, in accordance with an open data paradigm, through the IDEArq platform, a spatial data infrastructure for the online publication of repertories of georeferenced archaeological information, hosted by the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC). In this paper, we present the dataset and propose its use in the evaluation of biases produced by regional variations in research intensity, a problem brought out in recent interpretative debates. This application is illustrated by the discussion of the issue of potential “demographic holes” during the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition, a crucial question in the debates about the neolithisation process in Iberia. By analysing the spatial and chronological distribution of radiocarbon dates, we evaluate the likelihood that these vacuums are due to regional research biases.
