These allow a first definition of a collective funerary model that could have been practiced in several caves of the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula. The forced flexed position of the individuals indicates that the corpses must have been deposited inside a strongly-tied shroud. The individuals were not buried but deposited on the ground. It is calculated that this funerary episode lasted between 130 and 400 years.

These allow a first definition of a multiple funerary model that could have been practiced in several caves of the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula. The forced flexed position of the individuals indicates that the corpses must have been deposited inside a strongly-tied shroud. The bodies were not buried but deposited on the ground. It is estimated that this funerary episode lasted between 130 and 400 years.

This mining activity, initially focused on the exploitation of quartz in the outcrops found in the Garraf Massif, particularly in the area known as Garraf negre (“black Garraf”), ended up with the discovery of variscite and other green-coloured minerals present in the same geological context. These groups started exploiting the green stone along with quartz.
The first distribution networks were developed. Prestige goods arrived to Can Sadurní thanks to the exchange networks connected to the green stones (also called callaite). There was a population increase. Suddenly, around the change of millennium, the presence of the community in the cave stopped. From this moment onwards, the mining community of Can Tintorer, now in the Middle Neolithic II phase or Sepulcres de Fossa culture, appears and grows, which makes us think of a population migration from Can Sadurní Cave to Can TIntorer, which are ca. 8 km apart, within the same territory. This is one of the working hypotheses with which the CIPAG is working within the running research project (2014-2017) “Les comunitats prehistòriques del massís de Garraf nord. Orígens, genètica, patrons d’assentament, trets culturals, recursos i mobilitat durant la prehistòria recent” [The prehistoric communities of the Northern Garraf Massif. Origins, genetics, settlement patterns, cultural traits, resources and mobility during recent prehistory].

Por su parte la excavación y posterior publicación de los hallazgos en la necrópolis al aire libre de Sant Pau del Camp, ya en el último cuarto del quinto milenio, atestiguan el traslado de los centros de interés y de producción a los llanos litorales y prelitorales y la evolución de ese modelo funerario hacia un modelo de necrópolis de enterramiento individualizado, al aire libre, manteniendo aún, no obstante, muchos de los elementos rituales y formas funerarias anteriores.
