A funerary deposit in the form of a collective burial of 16 individuals, 8 adults and 8 children, has been uncovered in the architectural complex in Durango. This ancient Mexican site located in the lower northwest of the country also reported the first of its kind cranial modifications, very much intentional, in two of the skulls that resembled a heart shape when looked at from certain angles!
Remains of the Day: Fragmented Skulls and Bones at La Ferreira
According to a press release by the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH), among the skeletal remains of the 16 individuals who were found under the square plaza floor at Casa Colorada de la Zona Arqueológica de La Ferrería, eight were adults aged between 30 and 40 years old at the time of their demise, while the rest belonged to children aged between 1 and 7 years old. Most of the skeletons were fragmented, but remarkably, three of the adult skulls were well-preserved.
