This work presents archaeological and osteological evidences of the investigation made in the site of Armatambo, which have allowed to define, in the osteological case, the pathological conditions of a sample from the Middle Ychsma population corresponding to the 22 de Octubre sector, also joining the associated objects belonging to each Funeral Context. The results show a significant bony alteration in all the analyzed individuals. This high osteopathological percentage would reflect a significant preponderance in types of labor activity and extreme violence in which their members lived.
