Desgaste dental y hábitos dietarios en poblaciones arqueológicas del centro de Argentina

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to contribute to the knowledge of subsistence strategies and dietary habits of the human populations that inhabited the central region of Argentina during the Late Holocene through the evaluation of physiological stress indicators (pattern and degree of tooth wear). The samples correspond to a total of 61 individuals (19 females and 42 males) recovered from 36 archaeological sites located

“…In terms of geography, the eastern lowland region presents higher degrees of dental wear. Regarding the chronological periods, there is a higher incidence of dental wear before 1200 BP (González and Fabra 2018). Finally, when we consider what happens with individuals according to sex, regional provenance, and chronology, we note that in both regions the highest degrees of wear are present at early times, in both males and females (Figure 3).…”

“…We are well aware of the positive relation between the advances of age, dental wear, cavities, and other types of diseases such as periapical lesions and periodontal disease. However, because of the scarce quantity of samples predating 1200 BP, we decided not to present those data because they did not yield results reliable enough to make comparisons (for a fuller discussion on this topic, see González and Fabra 2018).…”

“…En cuanto al desgaste dental, particularmente los adultos medios y mayores de sexo masculino, han presentado los grados más severos, en comparación con los de la región serrana (González & Fabra, 2018). Las diferencias son significativas también en la comparación cronológica, siendo más severos en momentos tardíos del Holoceno.…”

“…Trabajos bioarqueológicos que han abordado cuestiones vinculadas con la salud oral y los marcadores de actividad física en esta región (Fabra et al, 2012(Fabra et al, , 2015González y Fabra, 2018;Salega y Fabra, 2013) han sugerido que estos cambios climáticos pudieron haber afectado la disponibilidad de recursos y, de esa forma, pudieron haber incidido en las condiciones generales de salud, sometiendo a las poblaciones a niveles de estrés y a un posible déficit nutricional desde edades tempranas. Particularmente, la presencia de hipoplasias del esmalte dental sugiere que las poblaciones asentadas en el centro de Argentina sufrieron una disminución en los niveles de salud en momentos finales del Holoceno tardío (González, 2016): las elevadas prevalencias de esta patología de origen metabólico sugieren que los más afectados por episodios de estrés fueron individuos adultos jóvenes y medios en toda el área estudiada, siendo las mujeres las que presentan mayores prevalencias, particularmente en llanuras.…”
