FRAGMENTED HUMAN SKELETAL REMAINS OF BARADERO INDIGENOUS CEMETERY. SCOPE AND LIMITATIONS OF THE BIOARCHAEOLOGICAL STUDY

We analyze a collection of fragmentary human skeletal remains from "Cementerio Indígena" site, located in Baradero, Buenos Aires province. According to the materials characteristics that were found associated with burials, they was attributed to the first half of the seventeenth century an...

According to the materials characteristics that were found associated with burials, they was attributed to the first half of the seventeenth century and this estimation has been corroborated by two radiocarbon dates. The archaeological records has been associated with the "Santiago del Baradero" Franciscan mission, founded in 1615 by Hernandarias. Among the objectives pursued with this study we emphasize: the revalorization of bioarchaeological information which can provide the fragmentary bone remains with similar characteristics to those of an ossuary, and the relevance of this record, since it is only of its kind and may provide insights into the impact of colonial evangelization enterprise into the area. Although the bioarchaeological study is constrained by a lack of integrity of the cranial and postcranial skeletal pieces, we rescued information about the minimum number of individuals, age, sex, the possible pathologies indicators and the more frequent activities.

We discuss its relationship with the sociocultural context and the possible changes brought about the interethnic conflict. Se analiza un conjunto de restos óseos humanos fragmentados correspondientes al sitio “Cementerio Indígena”, ubicado en Baradero, Pcia. de Buenos Aires. Según las características de los materiales asociados a los enterratorios se atribuyó una cronología correspondiente a la primera mitad del siglo XVII; esta estimación temporal ha sido corroborada actualmente mediante dos fechados radiocarbónicos. El registro arqueológico se ha vinculado con la misión franciscana “Santiago del Baradero” que fundó Hernandarias en 1615. Entre los objetivos que se persiguen con este estudio se destacan: la revalorización de la información bioarqueológica que proporcionan los restos óseos fragmentados con características similares a las de un osario; y la relevancia que adquiere este registro dado que es único en su tipo y puede aportar conocimientos sobre el impacto de la empresa evangelizadora colonial en el área. Si bien el estudio bioarqueológico está limitado por la falta de integridad de las piezas esqueletales, rescatamos información sobre el número mínimo de individuos, edad, sexo, posibles patologías e indicadores de actividad más frecuentes. Asimismo, estimando un número mínimo de 19 individuos evaluamos indicadores de estrés nutricional y dieta mediante el análisis dentario. Discutimos su relación con el contexto sociocultural y los posibles cambios producidos por el conflicto interétnico. Centro de Estudios Históricos.
