Resumen
Hasta la fecha, es escaso el conocimiento que se tiene acerca de la salud y modos de vida de
los habitantes de Cerro de Oro durante el periodo Horizonte Medio. Para este trabajo, se
analizaron individuos excavados por el Programa Arqueológico Cerro de Oro y por Julio César
Tello en 1925. Mediante esta investigación se buscó ahondar en las posibles diferencias en la
calidad de vida de los pobladores de Cerro de Oro durante el Horizonte Medio, a través de la
comparación del estado de salud (específicamente en la prevalencia de indicadores de estrés
inespecífico) entre los diversos grupos que compondrían esa sociedad (distintos grupos etarios,
étnicos, de género, de estatus social y habitantes de diferentes ¨barrios”). Los resultados de esta
investigación nos indicaron que los habitantes de Cerro de Oro tuvieron una salud y marcadores
étnicos similares, siendo que casi la totalidad de la muestra presentaron las mismas patologías
y el mismo tipo de modificación cefálica. Esto, nos lleva a pensar que esta sociedad estuvo
estructurada bajo una organización sociopolítica de tipo comunal, por lo cual posiblemente los
individuos de este sitio tuvieron un modo de vida similar

Through this research we sought to delve into the possible differences in the quality of life of the inhabitants of Cerro de Oro during the Middle Horizon. through the comparison of health status (specifically the prevalence of non-specific stress indicators) between the various groups that make up that society (different age, ethnic, gender, social status groups and inhabitants of different “neighborhoods”). The results of this research indicated to us that the inhabitants of Cerro de Oro had similar health and ethnic markers, and that almost the entire sample presented the same pathologies and the same type of cephalic modification. This leads us to think that this society was structured under a communal socio-political organization, which is why possibly the individuals at this site had a similar way of life
