Abstract
[Abstract] A population study of two contemporary sites of Ursus spelaeus from Serra do Courel (Galicia, NW of Iberian Peninsula) has been carried out. The different morphology of the sites, as well as the taphonomical processes that affected the deposits produce a biased preservation of the bone remains that is interpreted in this paper.
