Abstract
The aim of this paper is to analyze non-adult graves of the Bronze Age in the middle and upper Tajo basin. A direct and systematic osteological study has been carried out on immature human bones as well as all the archaeological variables involved in the funeral rite are been collected. With this data, both adult and non-adult graves are compared in order to detect eventual differences. Overall, it can be concluded that during Bronze Age in the studied area, the burial ritual was similar between both age groups.
