Abstract The aim of this work is to present the results obtained in the preventive intervention and the characterization of the general structure of the bioarchaeological collection, under the care of the Archaeological Museum of Villa Paranacito. The strategy used, for the realization of a suitable approach, was organized in two stages. In the first, an evaluation of storage conditions and contextual information was made. In the second stage, a protocol was developed aimed at preventive conservation tasks, which were designed to organize the repository and create a database. In this way, it was possible to determine that the provenances of the skeletal remains correspond to the archaeological sites El Guazuncho (NMI = 1) and Arroyo Martínez (NMI = 5). Likewise, a radiocarbon dating was obtained at the El Guazuncho site. The obtained results position this archaeological site in the final late Holocene. Finally, this work provides data on pathologies that allowed its regional contextualization.
