Abstract

The material analyzed in this work corresponds to a total of 35 funeral structures of the Bronze Age, fundamentally cyst and pithoi, in whose interior individual or multiple burials are detected pertaining to half hundred of people. The cultural elements are of argaric type, made up of metallic tools, ceramic containers, adornments and even deposited rest of fauna like nourishing offerings. By ages, almost half of the sample corresponds to subadults, mainly infantile minors of twelve years old. The objective of the present investigation consists of evaluating the presence of traumatic injuries and degenerative alterations.
