a twofold goal. On the one hand, it is intended to increase and extend in time the existing geomagnetic databases in Spain obtaining full-vector data (direction and absolute paleointensity). This will allow to extend the archaeomagnetic dating technique to
the recent prehistory. On the other hand, directional and relative paleointensity analyses will be carried out on Holocene and Upper Pleistocene speleothems from the Iberian Peninsula in order to reconstruct paleoenvironmental variations. Additionally, this
post-doc will also explore other archaeomagnetic applications of geoarchaeological interest. The materials to be studied comprise hearths, pottery or burnt cave sediments as well as speleothems from the Iberian Peninsula. </span></p>
