Neolithic pastoralism and plant community interactions at high altitudes of the Pyrenees, southern Europe by Irene Julián-Posada, Graciela Gil-Romera, Sandra Garcés-Pastor, Peter D. Heintzman, Daniel Gómez, Federico Fillat, Ana Moreno, Javier Lara-Recuero, Pere Bover, Lourdes Montes, Alejandro Sierra, Blas Valero-Garcés, Inger G. Alsos, Penélope González-Sampériz
