Popis: A funerary hypogeum at Quinta do Castelo (Salvada, Beja), in which a body was deposited in lateral decubitus, accompanied by grave goods consisting of an awl and an Odivelas cup, was studied. Following anthropological analysis of the skeletal remains, the individual was dated by radiocarbon, which allowed to assign a chronology of the end of the 1st quarter or of the beginning of the 2nd quarter of the 2nd Millennium BC to the burial. Taking into account this chronology, as well as the characteristics of the grave goods recorded in the hypogeum, together with other archaeological evidence, namely regarding the varied typology of the funerary structures characteristic of the Southwestern Bronze Age, a critical review of the Middle Bronze Age partition in Bronze 1 and 2, made by Schubart, which has generally been followed to date, was carried out.
