• Resumen

  • A sample of population of 77 children, between 0 and 12 years, coming from several sites of El Algar culture (1800-1200 B.B) is studied. The first objective is to know possible activities performed by these individuals analyzing the level of risks to suffer traumatisms. Fractures are found in 3.89% of the individuals. This contrasts with the value 15.32% in the adults from the same sites with trauma in postcranial skeleton. The fractures found are subperiosteal and could be explained perfectly by casual falls in walking and/or in game activities.
