Summary

A study of Bronze Age burial practices in Málaga, Spain, reveals that while collective tombs and hypogeums remained dominant, individual cist burials emerged with limited social significance. This is evidenced by the scarcity of high-value silver ornaments in these graves, suggesting that communal behaviors persisted despite broader trends toward individualization during this period. The research combines archaeological evidence, including funerary goods and radiocarbon dating, to trace the continuity and innovation in burial practices across the region.
