Resumo(s)
No sítio da Vinha das Caliças 4 (Beja) identificou-se uma necrópole de inumação da qual se escavaram 47 sepulturas, algumas das quais implantadas no interior de recintos de planta rectangular delimitados por fossos. Estas sepulturas têm formato rectangular, tendo os corpos sido depositados predominantemente em decúbito lateral. Mulheres e homens partilham o espaço funerário, sem que se note qualquer diferenciação
na ocupação espacial; documentaram-se também deposições infantis dispersas entre as sepulturas dos adultos. Algumas sepulturas foram violadas, muito provavelmente durante a época romana. Ainda assim, algumas conservaram um espólio abundante e diversificado, incluindo cerâmicas, elementos de indumentária e adorno, de mobiliário e armamento, entre outros. Ainda que a necrópole em estudo conte com paralelos, ao nível da arquitectura e dos materiais recuperados, na região circundante, é forçoso referir também algumas semelhanças com outros contextos funerários sidéricos do Sul do actual território português. Todos os dados apontam para uma cronologia que deverá centrar-se na segunda metade do século VI a.n.e, podendo defender-se que a utilização da necrópole correspondeu apenas a duas ou três gerações.
Vinha das Caliças 4 (Beja) is an inhumation necropolis of which 47 graves have been excavated, some of which were implanted inside rectangular enclosures circumscribed by ditches. The graves are rectangular in shape, and the bodies were deposited inside predominantly in lateral decubitus. Men and women shared the funerary space, without any noticeable spatial differentiation; infant graves were also documented among the adult ones. Some graves were disturbed, probably during the Roman period. Even so, the associated materials are abundant and diversifi ed both in the looted graves and in several that seem to have remained intact; it includes pottery, clothing items, adornments, furniture and weapons, among others. Although this necropolis counts with parallels, both in architecture and material culture, in the surrounding region, it is forceful to mention also some similarities with other funerary contexts of the southern Portuguese territory. All the data point to a chronology for the utilization of this necropolis centered in the second half of the 6th century BCE, suggesting that the use of this funerary area was restricted to two or three generations.
