Reflections on the identification and differentiation of porosity lesions from taphonomic effects in archaeological human skeletal remains
Over an individual’s life, bones undergo changes, which can leave marks on bone tissue and are of interest to bioarchaeological studies. These changes manifest themselves in a series of bone traits that constitute a potential line of evidence to inquire about past populations’ lifestyles. However, w...

Over an individual’s life, bones undergo changes, which can leave marks on bone tissue and are of interest to bioarchaeological studies. These changes manifest themselves in a series of bone traits that constitute a potential line of evidence to inquire about past populations’ lifestyles. However, when analyzing such alterations, it is necessary to consider a wide variety of taphonomic agents and processes that can mimic morphological features produced by pathological conditions and injuries of a non-pathological nature. These are the so-called pseudopathological alterations, and their origin can be due to both natural and anthropogenic factors, past and present. This paper will focus on a particular type of alteration, porosity, to establish specific criteria to recognize the nature of this lesion to contribute to its correct identification and to be able to carry out a differential diagnosis. |

A lo largo de la vida de los individuos, los huesos experimentan cambios, los cuales pueden dejar marcas en el tejido óseo que resultan de interés para los estudios bioarqueológicos. Dichos cambios se manifiestan en una serie de rasgos óseos que se constituyen como una potencial línea de evidencia para indagar sobre el estilo de vida de las poblaciones del pasado. Sin embargo, a la hora de analizar tales alteraciones, es necesario tener en cuenta que existe una amplia variedad de agentes y procesos tafonómicos que pueden imitar rasgos morfológicos producidos por condiciones patológicas, así como también de naturaleza no patológica. Se trata de las denominadas alteraciones pseudopatológicas, y su origen puede deberse a factores tanto naturales como antrópicos, pasados y actuales. En este trabajo se indagará en un tipo de alteración particular, la porosidad, a los fines de establecer ciertos criterios para reconocer la naturaleza de esta lesión con el objetivo de contribuir a su correcta identificación y poder llevar adelante un diagnóstico diferencial.
