| description |
The aim of this paper is to analyze the taphonomic processes and agents involved in the preservation and/or degradation of skeletal remains buried in contemporary cemetery contexts in the mountainous region of the province of Córdoba. To this end, 13 individuals from the Salsipuedes municipal cemetery were analyzed, recording taphonomic alterations such as floriturbation, fauniturbation, fractures, weathering, chemical precipitation and anthropic marks, among others, with particular emphasis on taphonomic indicators of burial contexts in cemeteries. The results show a high incidence of variables related to the wear produced by the coffins and stains and bone staining, as well as postmortem fractures and root marks, all indicators present in burial contexts. In general, the sample presents a good degree of preservation, however, in the adult individuals there was a preservation between regular and poor, while the subadult individuals present less presence of taphonomic variables. This difference is possibly related to differential burials between adults and children. |

El objetivo del presente trabajo es analizar los procesos y agentes tafonómicos que intervienen en la preservación y/o degradación de restos óseos inhumados en contextos cementeriales contemporáneos de la región serrana de la provincia de Córdoba. Para ello se analizaron 13 individuos procedentes del cementerio municipal de Salsipuedes registrando alteraciones tafonómicas como floriturbación, fauniturbación, fracturas, meteorización, precipitaciones químicas y marcas antrópicas entre otras, con particular énfasis en indicadores tafonómicos de contextos de entierro en cementerios. Los resultados demuestran una elevada incidencia de variables relacionadas al desgaste producido por ataúdes, tinción ósea, de fracturas postmortem y marcas de raíces, todos indicadores de este tipo de contextos. Si bien la muestra en general presenta un buen estado de preservación, en los individuos adultos se registró una preservación ósea considerablemente menor que en individuos subadultos. Esta diferencia posiblemente esté relacionada a inhumaciones diferenciales entre adultos e infantiles. O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar os processos tafonômicos e os agentes envolvidos na preservação e/ou degradação de restos de esqueletos enterrados em contextos cemiteriais contemporâneos na região montanhosa da província de Córdoba. Treze indivíduos do cemitério municipal de Salsipuedes foram analisados por meio do registro de alterações tafonômicas como floriturbação, fauniturbação, fraturas, intemperismo, precipitação química e marcas antrópicas, entre outras, com ênfase especial nos indicadores tafonômicos de contextos de sepultamento em cemitérios. Os resultados mostram uma alta incidência de variáveis relacionadas ao desgaste do caixão, manchas ósseas, fraturas pós-morte e marcas de raízes, todos indicadores desse tipo de contexto. Embora a amostra em geral mostre um bom estado de preservação, nos indivíduos adultos houve uma preservação óssea consideravelmente menor do que nos indivíduos subadultos. Essa diferença está possivelmente relacionada a enterros diferenciados entre adultos e crianças. Facultad de Filosofía y Humanidades.
