Abstract
A primeira ocupação do Penedo dos Mouros, datável do Neolítico, está preservada num pequeno abrigo sob rocha aberto no tor granítico que coroa a plataforma onde o sítio se localiza. A sua reocupação ocorre na Alta Idade Média, quando se construiu um povoado cercado. No tor central foram escavadas escadarias e entalhes que suportariam uma estrutura em madeira e que teria pelo menos dois pisos. Para além de sementes e madeiras carbonizadas e cerâmicas e foi possível também recuperar restos faunísticos. O presente artigo é assim uma abordagem sintética aos resultados obtidos nas cinco campanhas de escavações
realizadas no sítio.
The first occupation of Penedo dos Mouros, datable to the Neolithic, is preserved in a small rock-shelter under the granitic tor that is the summit of the platform where the site is located.Its re-occupation takes place in the Early Middle Ages, when a walled settlement was built. In the central tor steps and notches were carved to support a wooden structure with, at least, two stores. Besides burnt seeds and wood and pottery it was also possible to recover faunal remains. This article is a brief approach to the results that were obtained during the five excavation seasons that took place at the site.
