Resum

The archaeological site of “La Mezquita”, has been object of different archaeological excavation campaigns, which have allowed to identify the remains of a Romanesque-Mudejar church and a necropolis. This necropolis seems to have been used from the eleventh century until modern times. The changes of funerary use, together with other data from the funeral register, allowed us to consider the possibility of linking each one of these burial phases with different population groups that, in different waves of migration, would come from the northern areas of the peninsula. Thus, one of the objectives proposed by “Orígenes Cadalso” Project is the realization of different genetic-population studies, where the main objective will be the study of the biogeographical origin of several individuals selected from those found in each of the different phases of burial of the necropolis. To this target, lineage markers, such as mitochondrial DNA and / or the Y chromosome, will be used. On the one hand, this study will determine the most probable region of origin for the individuals analyzed, as well as, verify if in the three identified chronological phases in the interment there is a continuity of kinship and population among the buried individuals.
