El poblamiento en los Pirineos occidentales catalanes ¿cambio o continuidad?

In this paper we present our approach for research to verify the existence of different patterns of settlement in the high Pyrenean mountain areas, particularly in the Pallars (Lleida, Catalan Pyrenees Western) as well as providing the first results that confirm this hypothesis . To do this we have compared the works write by an anthropologist of the early twentieth century on lifestyles in the region with the archaeological record found in archaeological survey campaigns in the National Park Aigüestortes. The intention is to compare the archaeological register with the nomadic livestock model described in the ethnographic sources for try to infer changes in social practices throughout history.
