Resumen
PUNZO DIAZ, José Luis; GASTELUM-STROZZI, Alfonso; PELAEZ BALLESTAS, Ingris y ZARCO NAVARRO, Jesús. Non-invasive Archaeological Study through Tridimensional Virtual Reconstruction of Eight Pre-Columbian Funerary Urns from Tierra Caliente, Michoacan, Mexico. Intervención (Méx. DF) [online]. 2017, vol.8, n.16, pp.31-42. ISSN 2007-249X.
This RESEARCH presents the results of the application of imaging techniques and the development of computational methods for the analysis of archaeological deposits contained within eight Pre-Columbian cinerary urns discovered in the municipality of Huetamo, Michoacán (México). From this study, precise tridimensional digital models of the contents of the archaeological contexts were generated prior to their micro-excavation. These contents included a total of 5 426 entities, among which bone remains, metal artefacts, and others that formed part of the funerary offerings, stand out. Thus, this new non-invasive tridimensional documentation technique is set to be not only an important source for the investigation, but also a relevant conservation tool.
