Death compositions in El Argar (Antas, Spain): new perspectives from 19th-century excavation records
Original language description
The placement of a variety of objects inside Argaric tombs is a well-known funerary practice traditionally used to categorize individuals according to their access to wealth. This study emphasizes the significance of the precise spatial placement of grave goods within the tombs and introduces new perspectives on the funerary record of the eponymous site of El Argar (Antas, Spain). It draws attention to previously overlooked aspects of that society's funerary practices. The results suggest that specific rules governed the placement of both objects and bodies within the tombs. Argaric funerary practices, besides reflecting the social dimensions of the deceased, also reveal broader social structures and the presence of collective groups united through shared symbolic roles, thereby supporting the hypothesis of distinct social figures.
