Fuente Mudarra is on a gentle slope on the left bank of the Pico River, near Sierra de Atapuerca, Burgos, Spain. A 12−m2 test pit was dug at this large open-air site between 2012 and 2017. Several upper Pleistocene archaeological levels were documented. Results from Fuente Mudarra confirm that Neanderthal groups, little represented at cave sites, occupied Sierra de Atapuerca from the end of the middle Pleistocene and during the upper Pleistocene. The site also provides insight into Neanderthal spatial organization in the Atapuerca area and whether they used the caves in an occasional, non-habitual way like the open-air sites.

西班牙布尔戈斯富恩特穆达拉遗址的阿塔普尔卡尼安德特人景观，海洋同位素阶段 5-3

Fuente Mudarra位于西班牙布尔戈斯的Sierra de Atapuerca附近，皮科河左岸的一个缓坡上。一个 12 米22012 年至 2017 年间，在这个大型露天场地挖掘了测试坑。记录了几个上更新世考古水平。Fuente Mudarra 的结果证实，在洞穴遗址中很少有代表的尼安德特人群体从中更新世末期和上更新世期间占据了 Sierra de Atapuerca。该网站还提供了对阿塔普尔卡地区尼安德特人空间组织的深入了解，以及他们是否像露天遗址那样偶尔、非习惯性地使用这些洞穴。
