Judging by this study, it was. I don't see, either Neanderthals, or
Homo sapiens to live inland of Iberia, prior to 25 kya. But, we will see
what future research bring us. What's wrong with this picture? Were the
inland populations inland only during warm periods?

It gets very warm (and often very hot) in mainland
Spain in the Summer -- and it did so, in much the
same way 25 ka. There would have been no
problem for hominins to travel inland on hunting
and foraging expeditions every summer.
I don't have problems with 25kya. I am only wondering, why not before?
Both Homos, neanderthalensis as well as sapiens.
Interestingly, pit fired pottery emerged around the same time. The
oldest is from Czech Republic, 28 kya. Czech Republic is deep inland,
and it should be freezing there at the height of Ice Age.
Hm, it could be that seaside cultures didn't have a need to go inland,
and if the whole area was connected somehow (why it shouldn't be?, if
they were using some seafaring vessels), then the same culture could
control the whole Iberian peninsula.
