Bio
Born in 1956 is Full Professor of prehistory and Archaeology at the Open University, Lisbon, Porugal.
He is member and presently vice-president of the Portuguese Academy of History, and member of several institutions, as the Royal Academy of History, of Madrid and the German Archaeological Institute, of Berlin.
His activity as archaeologist begun in 1975, and presently he is author or co-author of 450 articles, books chapter, besides several books of archaeology, including two manuals of the Prehistory of Portugal.
Since 1983, he directed over than 100 excavations campaigns, especially in the Lisbon region, and also in the Algarve and the Beiras region, concerning different types of sites: funerary, ritual and domestic sites, from the Early Palaeolithic until the post-medieval times.
The twenty campaigns of excavations carried out in the fortified chalcolithic of Leceia (Oeiras County, Lisbon District), between 1983 and 2002 are of major importance, and the results obtained and published confer to this site a place between the most notable ones of the Iberian Peninsula. More recently he directed several campaigns in other two other important chalcolithic fortified sites in the Lisbon area, Moita da Ladra (Vila Franca de Xira County, Lisbon District), between 2003-2006 and Outeiro Redondo (Sesimbra County, Setubal District), between 2005 and 2008.
At the same time, he was interested by other periods. For domestic sites, it must be mentioned the excavations conducted in the following ones: from the Middle Paleolithic, Figueira Brava cave (Setubal County and District), where an important Mousterian lithic assemblage and faunal remains, including Homo neanderthalensis were found; from the Early Neolithic, the open-air site of Carrascal (Oeiras County, Lisbon District), where it was identified an important lithic and ceramic assemblage, associated to domestic and wild faunas, from the last quarter of the VI millennium BC; from the Late Bronze Age, the site of Tapada da Ajuda (Lisbon County and District); from the Early Iron Age, the site of Outurela (Oeiras County, Lisbon District); from the Early Roman Imperial Period, the rural establishment of Leião, and the villa of Oeiras, both of them in the Oeiras County, Lisboa District, besides others. For the ritual sites, the complex of menhires of Lavajo (Alcoutim County, Faro District), some of them decorated.
Finally, in the Funerary Archeology, he directed several field campaigns in the megalithic region of Rosmaninhal (Castelo Branco District), that lead to the definition of the sequence of both architectonic and typological material culture, between the Middle Neolithic and the Chalcolithic. From the Bronze Middle Age, he directed the excavation of the vast necropolis of Soalheironas (Alcoutim Conty, Faro District), near the interesting necropolis of Cabeço da Vaca, from the final Early Iron Age of the same region. Finally, from the Early Medieval times, he directed the excavation of the cemetery of Talaíde, from the V to the IX century AD. The Industrial Archeology attract also his attention: he directed several campaigns of excavations in the Royal Ironworks of Barcarena, in activity since the XV until the late XVII century.
He promoted an effective collaboration between different scientific areas: besides the multidisciplinary studies of Roman dams, involving engineers and other technicians, he is author of different kinds of geoarcheological studies and can be considered one of the pioneer of the studies of archeozoology in Portugal.
The interest by the African Archaeology justified two excavation campaigns carried out in the Republic of Cape Vert, in a site of the XVII/XVIII centuries, with both African, European and Oriental elements.
He is author of several studies of History of Archeology and biographies of Portuguese archeologists and of studies of Regional Archaeology.
