Resumen
El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar y discutir el desarrollo de la antropología forense en la provincia de Córdoba, Argentina. Se presenta una breve historia del desarrollo de la disciplina con énfasis en el trabajo iniciado por peritos del Equipo Argentino de Antropología Forense que derivaron en la actual institucionalización de la disciplina, con la creación del Servicio de Antropología Forense en el Instituto de Medicina Forense del Poder Judicial y la conformación del primer “Banco de datos de cadáveres y restos cadavéricos no identificados”. Su finalidad es recolectar y resguardar información biológica y documental de restos no identificados y contribuir en la restitución de la identidad de personas desaparecidas en la actualidad, no solo del ámbito local sino nacional. Además, se describen las tareas periciales realizadas a lo largo de doce años y se detallan las categorizaciones de los casos trabajados. Se dan a conocer las investigaciones desarrolladas en interacción con instituciones universitarias y académicas. Finalmente, y a la luz de este desarrollo se discute la importancia del rol del antropólogo forense dentro de los institutos de medicina forense y en interacción con otras ciencias y con otros agentes de justicia en la resolución de casos actuales en la provincia de Córdoba.
The aim of this work is to present and discuss the development of forensic anthropology in the province of Córdoba, Argentina. A brief history of the development of the discipline is presented with emphasis on the work initiated by experts from the Argentine Forensic Anthropology Team that led to the current institutionalization of the discipline, with the creation of the Forensic Anthropology Service at the Institute of Forensic Medicine of the Judicial Power and the creation of the first "Database of unidentified corpses and remains". Its purpose is to collect and safeguard biological and documentary data on unidentified remains and contribute to the restitution of the identity of currently missing persons, not only at the local but also at the national level. In addition, the expert tasks carried out over twelve years are described, and the categorizations of the cases worked are detailed. We also present the investigations developed in interaction with university institutions. Finally, we discuss, in light of this development, the importance of the role of the forensic anthropologists within the forensic medicine institutes and in interaction with other sciences and with other justice agents in the resolution of current cases in the province of Córdoba.
