General description and relevant information Modern Prehistory needs the use of analytical methods extracted from other sciences. Through some of these methods, palaeoclimatology deepens our knowledge of the palaeoenvironment of the human populations of the past, while studying deposits in their most microscopic dimension. That is to say, demonstrating what has been called "invisible archaeological record". The possibility of providing theoretical bases and especially practical knowledge of palaeoenvironment is a necessity to train good Quaternary archaeologists, which advises introducing this discipline into the curricular plan of the Master in Quaternary Archeology and Human Evolution.
