SERNA, Alejandro  e  ROMANO, Victoria. Bioarchaeological rescues in the mid valley of the Negro River (Province of Río Negro): the informative potential of highly disturbed record. Rev Arg Antrop Biol [online]. 2018, vol.20, n.2, pp.1-12. ISSN 1514-7991.  http://dx.doi.org/10.17139/raab.2018.0020.02.03.

This work focuses on the analysis of three bioarchaeological samples highly disturbed by modern anthropic action, which were recovered from the Negro river valley (province of Río Negro). Our objective is to present the results of the quantitative, sex-age, and taphonomic analyses carried out on the remains recovered in Fábrega, Negro Muerto 3, and Loma de los Muertos sites, and to assess the impact of incorporating this kind of disturbed samples into the intra-site and regional discussions. The results allowed the incorporation of a new mortuary site to the regional scheme, the expansion and adjustment of the number of individuals and age spectrum in other sites, and the incorporation of new information about cranial modification and post-mortem processing. The new data generated here demonstrates the informative potential of bioarchaeological record highly impacted by modern action. Rev Arg Antrop Biol 20(2), 2018. doi:10.17139/raab.2018.0020.02.03
