description This paper analyzes the results of archaeological excavations and new datings conducted on a Mound 1 of the Mancapa site (Santiago del Estero plains, Argentina). The aim is to evaluate formation of the mound structure, its chronology, and the associated funerary activities, issues that remain unresolved in local archaeology. The case presents a significant number of anthropogenic interventions and a diversity of burial situations. The study helped clarify the processes of distributions of human remains from two individuals in four distinct burial traits/context and in relation to two occupation levels. Additionally, the study allowed the identification of different stages and constituent activities, revealing the reuse of the same space for different purposes and a long-term formation process (from the early first millennium to peri-colonial times). It is suggested that the mound’s elevation may have involved deliberate additions of sediments and the burial process was shaped by a series of events distributed over time, potentially linked to a funerary ritual program that was spatially regulated and present in the life and memories of those who inhabited the site. These practices may have influenced the mobilization and incorporation of materials from different periods within the mound and the distribution of the dated samples.

El artículo analiza los resultados de excavaciones arqueológicas y de nuevas dataciones realizadas sobre el Montículo 1 del sitio Mancapa (llanura de Santiago del Estero, Argentina). El objetivo del trabajo es evaluar la formación de dicha estructura monticular, su cronología y las actividades funerarias asociadas, problemáticas aún sin resolver en la arqueología local. El caso presenta una importante cantidad de intervenciones antrópicas y diversidad de situaciones inhumatorias. El estudio sirvió para precisar los procesos de distribución de los restos humanos de dos individuos en cuatro rasgos/contextos inhumatorios diferenciados y en relación con dos pisos. Además, permitió ordenar diferentes etapas y actividades constitutivas del montículo, dando cuenta de la reutilización de un mismo espacio para diferentes fines y de un proceso de formación de larga trayectoria (principios del primer milenio a momentos pericoloniales). Se propone que la elevación monticular pudo implicar adiciones voluntarias de sedimentos, y que el proceso inhumatorio se configuró por una serie de eventos distribuidos en el tiempo y por un potencial programa de ritualidad funeraria, espacialmente pautado y presente en la vida y memoria de las personas que habitaran el lugar. Estas prácticas habrían influido en la movilización e incorporación de materiales de distintas épocas dentro del montículo y en la distribución de las muestras datadas. application/pdf text/html https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/14423 10.34096/arqueologia.t31.n1.14423 spa Instituto de Arqueología, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/14423/14196 https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/14423/14198 Derechos de autor 2025 Constanza Taboada, Silvina Rodríguez Curletto Arqueología; Vol. 31 No. 1 (2025): enero-abril; 14423 Arqueología; Vol. 31 Núm. 1 (2025): enero-abril; 14423 1853-8126 0327-5159 Bioarchaeology Datings Formation processes South American Chaco Bioarqueología Dataciones Procesos de formación Chaco sudamericano Biography of a singular (or not so much) mound with incomplete inhumations.
