Campaña XXXII-2022 de excavaciones arqueológicas en Pintia (Padilla de Duero/Peñafiel. Valladolid)

Resum

This paper provides the results of the excavations conducted in different locations of the Archaeological Site of Pintia in 2022. Firstly, works were reopened in the habitational area of Las Quintanas, within a project of recovery and valorization which aims to show the different settlement phases of the hillfort through the stratigraphic section of a failed roman artisan well. Alongside this museum project, another aim for this area is to access the thermoaltered structures in order to date each of the levels using paleomagnetism. Hence, a trench was opened in this residential area to document the pre-roman level set below the last vaccean layer which were excavated extensively in 2006. Secondly, archaeological excavations were conducted in various periurban areas of the hillfort to report and evaluate damages produced by furtive activities using metal detector in September 2021. The results of this trenches certified that those vaccean-roman sectors were used as dumps, working places and/or circulation locations.
