Resumen
Two rich Upper Pleistocene archaeological caves in the middle valley of the Arlanza River (Burgos) are well known since the 1980s: Millán and La Ermita. Several archaeological excavations have yielded a large number of lithic elements and a smaller amount of bones. This assemblage has permitted the characterization of the “Quina Mousterian”. However, neither a study of the provisioning systems and lithic exploitation methods nor an analysis of the bone remains have ever been done to define the degree of human involvement in the formation of the sites. This paper analyzes these aspects, including unpublished archaeological material andfocusing on the use of the biotic and abiotic resources. We compare the two sites and propose a functional interpretation linked to seasonality and the special treatment of hides and leather
