Abstract
In this work we presented the results of the first analyses of Aterro Jatobá’s mortuaries structures, placed in the left margin of the river Paraguay, in the denominated area Descalvado. The mortuaries structures’ analyses and the study of the dispersed human bone fragments allow to observe us the complexity of the natives’ social practices that lived in this local.
