Resumen
In this contribution they are presented the human remains of the forearm of the Sidrón Man, found in 1994 at the Sidrón Cave (Piloña, Asturias, Spain), sample that is known as SDR-1994. The remains of the forearm composed by seven fragments of radius and ten fragments of ulna, show a good estate of preservation, apart from some exceptions. The osteologic study shows that the remains that are included in this contribution, can be assigned to the filetic group of Homo heidelbergensis-H.neandertalenesis, specially from the morfologic features such as the orientation of the radial tuberosity, the anterior orientation of the throclear notch of the ulna and a larger development of the pronator quadratus muscle insertion and crest in the ulna. Age and MNI determination evidenced the presence of at least three subadult individuals between 18 and 21 years old.
