| Sumario: | This paper reviews the proposed biocultural model for the study of stress and adaptation process in ancient populations. It also describes the most widely skeleton stress indicators used in bioarchaeology and discusses temporal trends founded in the comparative analysis of hunter-gathered and farmers populations. Proposed some lines of work to strengthen the potential of human skeletal remains recovered in archaeological contexts as a source of information to understand the lifestyle of past populations. |
