“…The hypotheses I have just described could be supported by some research that shows the presence of net weights in archaeological contexts close to aquatic spaces, as is the case of the site of El Estorbo, in the Gulf of Urabá, explored by Professor Gustavo Santos, 4 where weights were found on small to medium-sized boulder supports, generally with percussion cut-outs towards the sides or vertices of the transverse axis of the rocks (which we decided to call Covado, alluding to the concept used in the context of the traditional fishermen of the seatory of Taganga, Magdalena).…”

The following article presents some of the findings associated with the site of El Porvenir, in the department of Cesar, in the northern region of Colombia. It presents some of the subsistence strategies and possible uses of space of the ancient inhabitants of the site, based on the evidence of fishing activities, which reveal the establishment of social relations associated with aquatory, symbolic constructions in aquatic spaces, and the establishment of a social network associated with the use of the site.

“…We conducted research at three distinct archaeological sites: Cerro del Volador, which yielded one individual (bone); Alto de las Flores in Envigado, where we analyzed one individual (bone) in Medellín; and La Colinita, where we investigated eight individuals (molars) in Medellín (Figure 1). The samples selected for analysis date back to the late pre-Hispanic period and the contact period, specifically spanning from the eleventh to the eighteenth centuries AD [7].…”

“…The second funerary pattern, originating in Antioquia in the fourteenth century AD, is associated with the late ceramic style, spanning from the tenth century AD to the time of the Conquest. This pattern is characterized by burials in intricate and spacious funerary structures known as "pit tombs with a lateral chamber", commonly found atop hills in cemeteries [7].…”

“…Another burial site atop Las Flores contained the skeletal remains of an adult individual, devoid of grave goods but adorned with engravings representing a hut. The "pit tombs with a lateral chamber" in the Aburrá Valley are intricate representations of indigenous dwellings, holding profound significance both in construction and cosmology [7] These are hills with privileged panoramic views, where accumulations of tombs or necropolises were discovered. It should be clarified that the tombs investigated in the three hills of the Aburrá Valley, where the city of Medellín is located, belong to this latter period.…”

This article presents a comprehensive genetic study focused on pre-Hispanic individuals who inhabited the Aburrá Valley in Antioquia, Colombia, between the tenth and seventeenth centuries AD. Employing a genetic approach, the study analyzed maternal lineages using DNA samples obtained from skeletal remains. The results illuminate a remarkable degree of biological diversity within these populations and provide insights into their genetic connections with other ancient and indigenous groups across the American continent. The findings strongly support the widely accepted hypothesis that the migration of the first American settlers occurred through Beringia, a land bridge connecting Siberia to North America during the last Ice Age. Subsequently, these early settlers journeyed southward, crossing the North American ice cap. Of particular note, the study unveils the presence of ancestral lineages from Asian populations, which played a pivotal role in populating the Americas. The implications of these results extend beyond delineating migratory routes and settlement patterns of ancient populations. They also enrich our understanding of the genetic diversity inherent in indigenous populations of the region. By revealing the genetic heritage of pre-Hispanic individuals from the Aburrá Valley, this study offers valuable insights into the history of human migration and settlement in the Americas. Furthermore, it enhances our comprehension of the intricate genetic tapestry that characterizes indigenous communities in the area.

“…Es así como se distinguen cuatro periodos, que van desde el segundo milenio a. C. hasta el siglo XVI; las ocupaciones tempranas están representadas en tres periodos: el primero corresponde a las ocupaciones previas al segundo milenio a. C., el segundo que corresponde al primer y segundo milenios a. C. y el tercero que va desde los siglos I a VIII d. C. y que coincide con lo que los primeros estudios arqueológicos denominaron como clásico regional (Arcila 1953;Castillo 1988;Santos y Otero 2003). Las evidencias funerarias que se han documentado y excavado en el noroccidente colombiano hasta la fecha son acordes con el proceso de ocupación humana a lo largo de los siglos, pues se reportan enterramientos desde el precerámico hasta el periodo tardío, que va desde el siglo VIII al XVI d. C. (Arcila 1950(Arcila , 1955Santos 1989Santos , 2008Castillo y Aceituno 2002;Piazzini 2004;Botero et al 2011;Piazzini et al 2017).…”

Los contextos funerarios del noroccidente de Suramérica suelen tener restos humanos con un alto grado de deterioro y perturbación, lo cual ha representado un desafío en el aprovechamiento de estos como fuente de información del pasado. Dadas estas circunstancias, este trabajo quiere exponer las virtudes de la perspectiva tafonómica en el abordaje de contextos funerarios complejos y en el análisis de restos óseos, por lo que se toma como referente el caso de un túmulo funerario excavado recientemente en la cordillera occidental colombiana en el municipio de Dabeiba. Por medio del reconocimiento del proceso de formación del sitio y de los procesos tafonómicos a los que estuvieron sujetos los restos humanos de un infante, se obtuvo información empírica que ayudó a establecer parte de los tratamientos que dieron las poblaciones prehispánicas a sus muertos y de los eventos posteriores a la inhumación relacionados con el saqueo de la tumba, lo que permitió responder al reto que representa el abordaje de estos contextos complejos. Es así como se propone este abordaje como una forma de resaltar el gran potencial de los restos humanos antiguos como una fuente de información que contribuye a la reconstrucción del pasado prehispánico de esta región.
