Background: In prehistoric societies, especially in the Neolithic period, study of palaeodiet assumes special importance as it is one points human history characterised by important changes diet. this context, food intolerances even more significant. Methods: Some individuals studied were analysed from a genetic point view, while systematic literature review was performed perspective, verifying persistence or absence lactase adulthood, and information necropolises regarding presence...
Summary This paper examines the identification of kinship relations in archaeological multiple burials and advocates application different methods lines research to clarify such issues relation funerary practices. Recognizing family relationships – an important task on prehistoric societies is especially complicated interpretations have often been made without adequate empirical basis. Bioarchaeological, isotopic DNA analyses applied triple burial Los Tolmos (Cogotas I culture, Iberian...
Although biological relationships are a universal reality for all human beings, the concepts of “family” and “family bond” depend on both geographic region historical moment to which they refer. However, concept can be determinant in large variety societies, since it influence lines succession, inheritances social relationships, as well where with whom an individual is buried. The relation between deceased person other members community, individuals same necropolis, or even those who buried...
Background: This study relies on the discovery of two pit burials (LTA and LTB) Bronze Age Cogotas I archaeological culture (circa 3600–2950 BP) in Spain. LTA was a single burial LTB contained three skeletal remains adults newborn or foetus at term.Aim: The central question posed by this find whether tomb constituted traditional nuclear family (father, mother son daughter).Methods: Ancient forensic DNA protocols were employed to obtain reliable results. Autosomal, X-STR markers mitochondrial...
Syphilis is one of the most exciting diseases explored in paleopathology and, therefore, tracing back its origin and development has provided a prolific debate. The combination paleopathological data with historical sources, iconography, archaeological contexts were primary sources used to reconstruct path. However, there are some limitations diagnosis due nature bone reaction stimuli. In addition, subjected bias social cultural knowledge those who wrote them. Hence, ancient DNA analysis...
This review aims to establish criteria for identifying an adoption process in archaeological context. We define as raising individual who does not belong genetically the family. Adoption appears different moments of past societies, and when establishing a “family” nucleus burial place we must consider certain social behaviors, such burials under houses, collective burials, or laying bodies specific positions. After observing these signs, are carrying out genetic analysis, order confirm...
Con motivo de presentar dos tumbas individuales en fosa inéditas, se aborda un estudio conjunto sobre las prácticas funerarias del Calcolítico Precampaniforme la submeseta norte española. Pese a su carácter mayoritario el registro arqueológico, discute representatividad como norma este tipo sepulturas; rastrean comportamientos propios rituales enterramiento tiempos, preludio los documentados mismo espacio Edad Bronce; aporta información ADN mitocondrial y sexo molecular uno difuntos, pone...

Throughout history, it has been observed that human populations have buried the deceased members of their communities following different patterns. During Copper Age and Bronze Age—periods on which this study focuses—in northern sub-plateau Iberian Peninsula, we identified patterns multiple or collective burial. This work analyzes a total 58 individuals in graves, to investigate whether practice these burials implies family biological link between together. With aim, STR markers nuclear DNA...
