 Abstract: Grotte des Contrebandiers (Smugglers’ Cave) is one of several archaeology-bearing coastal caves in the Rabat-Temara region of Morocco. It lies c. 17 km south of Rabat and 250 m from the current Atlantic coastline. Archaeological work along the Atlantic littoral of Morocco began in the late 1930s. In 1956, J. Roche discovered Contrebandiers Cave where he excavated until 1976. In 2005, within the framework of a collaboration between the Institut National des Sciences de l’Archéologie et du Patrimoine (INSAP) and the University of Pennsylvania, M. A. El Hajraoui and the late H. L. Dibble directed new excavations of the cave. Contrebandiers contains Middle (upper layers with tanged pieces and lower layers without tanged pieces) and Later (Iberomaursian) Stone Age deposits, with lithic artifacts, vertebrate fauna (including bone tools), mollusks (including shell ornaments), and evidence for fire use. Extensive dating programs consisting of optically stimulated luminescence, electron spin resonance, thermoluminescence, and accelerator mass spectrometry 14C produced a series of absolute dates for the occupations. A hominin fossil was recovered from the Middle Stone Age deposits and will be reported elsewhere.
