Abstract


The spit bar of Calahonda (Granada), together with that one from Roquetas (Almería), constitutes one of the best examples in south-eastern Spain. Its development is associated to the different Holocene sea-level oscillations occurred since the last eustatic maximum. Progradation of these spit bars occurs under certain climatic conditions, which have repeated cyclically during Holocene times, giving place to different morphosedimentary units recognized along the whole southern peninsular littoral. In Calahonda, the main development of the spit bar is associated to the second progradation phase, which takes place since ca. 2,400 years.
