Abstract

This study explores prehistoric mobility networks in the Lisbon Peninsula, focusing on the Chalcolithic and Late Bronze Age periods. Utilising Least Cost Path (LCP) methodologies and Tobler's Hiking Function, movement patterns and connectivity between settlements were analysed. The research reveals a complex landscape of human interactions and environmental adaptations, highlighting social and economic transformations across these periods. In the Chalcolithic, a dense network of routes was identified, which suggest intense social and trade exchanges. In contrast, the Late Bronze Age (LBA) exhibits a changed mobility landscape, with less dense but more focused routes, reflecting possible socio-economic reorganisations. This study not only sheds light on the territorial dynamics of the Lisbon Peninsula during these critical periods but also contributes to a richer understanding of occupation strategies and the relationship between humans and their environment.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • LCP and walking-time simulations have been successfully applied to Chalcolithic and Bronze Age sites and their potential routes, as well as to Neolithic potential movements, but their application to Chalcolithic funerary contexts remains scarce.

    “While LCP and walking-time simulations have been successfully applied to Chalcolithic and Bronze Age sites and their potential routes (Bilotti et al., 2024;Texugo et al., 2025), as well as to Neolithic potential movements (Carvalho, 2014), their application to Chalcolithic funerary contexts remains scarce, despite some recent advances (Cabrero et al., 2024a(Cabrero et al., , 2024b)).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
