The Pleistocene deposits were generated by high-energy channelled fluvial flows and dense currents of debris flow and mud flow type. The recovered lithic industry, created mainly in low-quality local materials, can be associated with Gravettian technocomplexes. Three radiocarbon dates obtained from the stratigraphic sequence are located in a temperate interstadial of OIS 3a and in a cold episode at the beginning of OIS 2. The faunal remains, which come from human consumption, display cut and percussion marks. They reveal a predominance of equines, followed by deer, in a mosaic environment. A shale plaque-pendant, worked and decorated, was found outside the stratigraphy. The human occupations of the shelter must have been sporadic, but reflect, with the growing evidence nearby, a thriving population in this area of anatomically modern humans. The association of pre-Solutrean archaeological materials, together with the dates obtained, establishes the human occupation of the Los Enebrales shelter as the oldest evidence of the Upper Palaeolithic in the inner Iberian Plateau. application/pdf eng Elsevier Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports. 2024, V. 53, p. 104340 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jasrep.2023.104340 Atribución-NoComercial 4.0 Internacional http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/ info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Geoarchaeology Chronostratigraphy Zooarchaeology Lithic industry Portable art Southern Iberian plateau Gravettian Arqueología Paleontología Excavaciones arqueológicas Archaeology Paleontology Excavations (Archaeology) Los Enebrales rock-shelter (Tamajón, Guadalajara, Spain): First Gravettian site in central Iberia info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports 53 104340
