El Mirón Cave, Cantabrian Spain
Though known as a site since 1903, El Mirón Cave in the Cantabrian Mountains of northern Spain remained unexcavated until a team from the universities of New Mexico and Cantabria began ongoing excavations in 1996. This large, deeply stratified cave allowed the team to apply cutting-edge techniques of excavation, recording, and multidisciplinary analysis in the meticulous study of a site that has become a new reference sequence for the classic Cantabrian region. The excavations uncovered the long history of human occupation of the cave, extending from the end of the Middle Paleolithic, through the Upper Paleolithic, up to the modern era. This volume comprehensively describes the background information on the setting, the site, the chronology, and the sedimentology. It then focuses on the biological and archaeological records of the Holocene levels pertaining to Mesolithic, Neolithic, Chalcolithic, and Bronze Age. Archaeologists, anthropologists, and historians will be drawn to this study and its extensive findings, dated by some seventy-five radiocarbon assays.
The Highlands of Cantabria Or Three Days From England (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from The Highlands of Cantabria or Three Days From EnglandIt was in 718, in the cul de sac of Covadonga, that the Gothic chief, Pelayo, with his noble band of about 300, struck terror into the Moorish invaders, and dealt the first of those series of blows to Saracenic interference with Spain and her people, which cu] minated seven hundred years later in the conquest of their last stronghold in the Peninsula, Granada. At Covadonga it was that Pelayo donned his iron crown as King of the Asturias, Leon, and Castile, its material being the points of Moorish spears, taken from chiefs that he had slain with his own hand and here, too, the Spanish people are to-day erecting a noble cathedra...

Spain
This Selected Issues paper on Spain focuses on differences in regional productivity. Recent studies of income convergence among Spanish regions suggest that the convergence has been slow since 1980 reflecting persistent regional disparities in total factor productivity. The empirical analysis—employing stochastic frontier models—finds that, among other factors, differences in regions’ skills mismatch and technology absorption capacity could be behind the disparities. A benchmarking exercise demonstrates significant potential growth benefits from policy measures that would bring regions closer to the frontier. Regional income disparities—driven by differences in total factor productivity (TFP) and unemployment—while not large compared with European peers, have been persistent in recent years. The economy’s overall productivity frontier moved inward overtime, but this trend has slowed down after the crisis. The inward shift of the production frontier could be one of the explanations for the negative TFP growth observed before the crisis. Active labor market policies at the regional level could also work toward addressing skills mismatch and education outcomes.
