The archaeological site where the greatest number of elements related to this ritual practice have been recovered has been in the Iberian city of Ullastret (formed by the settlements of Puig de Sant Andreu and l'Illa d'en Reixac), capital of the tribe. of the indiketes . The two sites that make up this large agglomeration, excavated since , have provided more than forty individuals identified from remains of jaws, skull-maxillaries and isolated teeth. The first time that human remains of this type were recognized was in , when a silo in Puig de Sant Andreu was excavated, near one of the posterns of the wall. Inside, a deposit formed by three skulls of adult men appeared along with a mutilated sword.
At the same site, cranial remains have also been documented in other silos, in a cistern and around some of the oppidum doors. However, the largest group corresponds to the one found in an aristocratic building located in the Gmail Email List central-western part of the habitat. During its excavation, numerous cranial remains were recovered along with mutilated weapons (La Tène-type swords and spears) with indisputable signs of violence and interlocking.

Cartography: Museu d'Arqueologia de Catalunya-Ullastret. In most Ullastret cases it can be seen how the cranial bones are altered as a result of long exposure to the elements during the skeletonization process. There are cases in which peri-mortem decapitation marks and peri-mortem and post-mortem ritual actions are observed . Some specimens present both types of lesions. In the first group, transverse cuts are detected at the base of the chin and skull. They were necessarily practiced with a heavy, sharp instrument brandished with considerable force to cut the bone. In the second group, vertical incisions are observed in areas of the skull where muscles are inserted and, depending on their location and direction, it can be determined that they were made once the head was already separated from the body. Also included in this same group are the shallow, parallel incisions made during the scalp skinning process. _________________ Job Function Database |
