Abstract

Determining the composition and microdeposition of minerals, and their relation with the skin, are basic in order to understand the mechanisms, dynamics and environmental conditions that take place in the burial context. The present research has been developed with the objective of obtaining information that will contribute to increasing our knowledge of the modification processes in the preserved skin, verified inside an archaeological context.
