Abstract


This paper sets forth the connection between burial rituals, social reproduction and heritage mechanisms. Special attention is given to the Southern Iberian Bronze Age burials. The role played in social hierar- chisation by stock property along with the servile and aristocratic character of such societies is also discussed. Finally, some reflections on the bounderies of the, so-called, Argaric Cultural Horizon and the causes of the spread of its Material Culture features are made.
