This international conference aims to serve as an encounter place for researchers who have the last hunter-gatherers and the first farmers and herders as object of study. With this meeting, we seek to establish a new framework about the changes, adaptations and resiliences developed during the Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene in the southwest of the Iberian Peninsula, an area with great influence of Atlantic façade, the inner peninsula and the Mediterranean basin.
