AUGE, Melisa Ayelén  e  TAPIA, Alicia Haydeé. PLANT MICRO-REMAINS IN DENTAL CALCULUS OF PRE AND POSTHISPANIC INDIVIDUALS (BARADERO, PROVINCE OF BUENOS AIRES). Comechingonia [online]. 2023, vol.27, n.2, pp.1-1. ISSN 1851-0027.

This contribution presents the results of analysis of vegetable microremains recovered in dental calculus from two archaeological sites in the northeast of the province of Buenos Aires: Rancho José, dated 1900 + 20years BP; and the Cementerio Indígena, corresponding to the Franciscan reduction of Santiago de Baradero, founded in the 17th century. We registered, on the one hand, presence of American horticultural products from early times together with other native species, and on the other hand, lower diversity of plant taxa at times of the Franciscan reduction. We identified plants ingested and/or manipulated with the mouth and different associated processes within the human groups that inhabited the Bajíos Ribereños Septentrionales. Zea mays starches were identified in the samples, as well as aff. Phaseolus sp. and aff. Manihot esculenta, also panicoid and arecoid phytoliths and Celtis tala foliar cystoliths.
