CARRERA, Laura Coy  y  ROJAS-SEPULVEDA, Claudia. Playing Hide-and-Seek with the Children in the Past: Towards a Bioarchaeology of Childhood in Colombia. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2020, vol.56, n.1, pp.215-243. ISSN 0486-6525.  https://doi.org/10.22380/2539472x.1051.

Children have always been present in the history of humanity and make up a significant percentage of the population, however, they have received little attention in Colombian archaeology. This review article aims to recognize the research potential of childhood and expose some methodological and theoretical alternatives to the difficulties that researchers face when studying these individuals in the archaeological records and, particularly, the bioarchaeological ones. This differential approach in archaeology is recently emerging in Latin America.

Palabras clave : childhood; bioarchaeology; archaeology of childhood; Latin America.
