This volume is composed of 18 articles in which the reality of the house is approached, the home as a physical, social space, symbolic, over time and in different geographical contexts. Therefore, it is a transversal approach that begins in the Palaeolithic, passing through the Neolithic in Mesopotamia and the Iberian Peninsula, Chalcolithic and Protohistoric models and the Arab world in Greece and the Iberian Peninsula, and various models of the American continent: from Cahokia, going through hunter gatherers from the north of Mexico, Teotihuacan and various archaeological, ethnohistorical models corresponding to the Mayan culture. Methodological proposals are made from the archaeological and ethnographic perspective, with theoretical reflection on the ways of approaching those daily realities that are domestic spaces and the diversity of functions.
