Abstract

Archaeological exhibitions are a unique opportunity to highlight the social value of diverse materialities of the past. This objective has presided over the research, documentation, recovery, conservation, and dissemination that we have carried out for almost five years with teams from the Archaeological Museum of Alicante, the Regional Archaeological Museum of Madrid, and the national Archaeological Museum of Lisbon. Our choice to examine the small pieces commonly referred to as “idols” stems from our interest in unifying the vision of the widespread evidence of Late prehistorical human representations in Iberia.

Keywords:Bodys Mobile Representations; Iberia; Neolithic; Chalcolithic
