| Resumo: | In this paper, some unmingling methods were evaluated within two contexts of commingled skeletal human remains with opposite levels of preservation. Also, the zonation and landmarks inventory methods were used in order to calculate the MNI along with other proposed equations. Afterwards, different indices, including a new one proposed in here, were applied in order to express the level of conservation of both archaeological contexts. After reviwing the extant research on commingled remains, the variety of methods used to unmingle them and the archaeological background of the two contexts worked in here, the results of the Ossuary of San Ignacio Temple and the Conjunto 07 of Bloque A10 of the Cementerio Central bone colection of Bogotá, Colombia, are introduced. These two particular contexts went from presenting a MNI of 34 and 106 to 37 and 110 respectively. At the end of the text, an evaluation of the used methods is made along with their advantages and limitations, and, as the final appendix, a proposal for a methodological guide to the unmingling of commingled remains is provided. |
