ALVAREZ LARRAIN, Alina; SPANO, Romina  e  GRIMOLDI, M. Solange. POTS AS URNS, HOUSES AS TOMBS: REFLECTIONS REGARDING BURIAL PRACTICES OF INFANTS AND SMALL CHILDREN IN EARLY TIMES (ANDALHUALA BANDA, SOUTH OF YOCAVIL). Comechingonia [online]. 2017, vol.21, n.1, pp.1-10. ISSN 1851-0027.

The sites of Mesada de Andalhuala Banda (MAB), Soria 2 and Soria 3 (from the beginning of the first millennium of the era), share a configuration of materiality in which the domestic is imbued with the funerary; vessels and locations that at one time were pots and houses, respectively, were redefined as funeral urns and tombs in a temporal trajectory contained in the Early Period. Taking into account the burial of infants and children into ordinary pots and in domestic spaces, this paper presents and analyzes practices around the early death event using the ongoing research in the MAB (Yocavil Valley, Catamarca) as an opportunity to reflect on certain aspects of the Early Period, emphasizing an archaeological narrative centered on places and subjects, transiting a local spatial scale limited to one or two generations.

Palavras-chave : early deaths, domestic pots, houses, Northwest Argentina.
