“…Therefore, it is possible that the knowledge of color technology and of how to prepare the mummified bodies was in the hands of experts and was only available to certain individuals who enjoyed privileges within their group. The discovery of an adult individual with advanced osteoarthritis (as shown by deformities and joint immobility) with its head painted with iron oxide indicates that the members of the group treated this individual carefully both during life and after death [34]. In other words, certain individuals with specific roles or status in life would have enjoyed similar treatment in death.…”

“…La presencia de patologías vertebrales es ampliamente conocida en poblaciones humanas prehistóricas del norte de Chile, sin embargo, mayoritariamente corresponden a patologías degenerativas y morfofuncionales, ligadas a una vida dedicada a la extracción de recursos marinos, transporte de peso extracorporal y en algunos casos, de trabajos agrícolas (Andrade et al, 2014;Berrios, 2014;Constanzo, 2013;Henríquez y Arriaza, 2013). Sin embargo, en la bibliografía especializada no se reportan casos que den cuenta de la anomalía aquí presentada, tanto para la zona de estudio, como para otros sectores de la costa norte de Chile (Gerszten, Gerszten y Allison, 2001;Quevedo, 2000;Silva-Pinto, Valenzuela y Sepúlveda, 2013;Standen, Allison y Arriaza, 1984), salvo por la reciente publicación de un caso en Arica, correspondiente a un individuo femenino del periodo Intermedio Tardío (Arriaza et al, 2019).…”

“…Esta técnica, aplicada sobre material óseo humano, ha demostrado gran potencial para generar información sobre su composición y sobre los hábitos en vida y muerte de las personas, tales como dieta, exposición a minerales y acompañamientos mortuorios, entre otros (Akesson et al 1994;Fialová et al 2017). En el área Andina Meridional ya cuenta con algunos antecedentes de su utilización sobre materiales depositados sobre restos humanos, por ejemplo, para la determinación de pigmentos rojos en la piel (Silva-Pinto et al 2013) o materiales arcillosos que recubren las momias de la tradición Chinchorro (Arriaza et al 2012).…”
