Teaching Methods
Lectures combined with theoretical-practical content, using images and class discussions of texts and research carried out by students. Whenever possible, a continuous review and interactivity with the students through quizzes, discussions in the classroom and presentation of papers. Otherwise, tests on lecture material will have to be given.
Learning Outcomes
This class will give an overview of the dynamics and cultural processes of the peninsular communities between the end of the 2nd and 1st millenia B.C., from a standpoint of its organization and operation as well as in terms of its construction, space, artefacts, art, rituals and symbols. The endogenous changes and results from the contact and interaction with the Mediterranean, Atlantic and Continental worlds will be analyzed. The goal of the class is to provide students with a broad vision of the proto-historic peninsular communities and their structure, evolution, transformation and cultural distinctions.
