| Sumario: | Familia Primón (FP) is an archaeological site located in a residential area in the south of Coronda city, on theright bank of the homonymous river (San Jerónimo department, Santa Fe province). During the archaeological fields works carried out, three sectors were excavated; sector 1 corresponds to a multiple human burial area. This paper presents the results of the reconstruction of the burial map ―achieved from the digitalization of the spreadsheets and photographs recovery in analogical format and their management through geographic information systems (GIS)― and from anatomical, quantitative and taphonomic studies carried out on the human bone remains. Additionally, a synthesis of available information of other sites with human burials located in the area of the Coronda River is made. In general, the results show that at least 18individuals were buried at the FP site, both in primary and secondary burials, with different orientations and characteristics comparable to those relieved from other archaeological sites in the area and also in the Northeastern of Argentina. |
