LEZCANO MARTINEZ, A. e RESTREPO HERNANDEZ, N.. The osteological reference collections as a forensic and researching tool in Colombia. Cuad. med. forense [online]. 2018, vol.24, n.1-2, pp.43-49. Epub 21-Set-2020. ISSN 1988-611X.
The population variability in Colombia and its marked miscegenation makes the morphology of the Colombian is heterogeneous, which does not allow faithfully apply the postulates, methods and techniques implemented internationally in homogeneous populations at the time of making an identification skeletonized individuals.
To carry out this identification, we use modifications that increase the margin of error that each standard has, making it ineffective and inaccurate for the population groups. Reason for which, in this work, the problem of the identification of skeletonized individuals in the Colombian context is developed, in a historical stage of post-agreement with the Fuerzas Armandas Revolucionarias de Colombia (FARC) and the importance of the osteological reference collections as a forensic and investigative tool, where methods and techniques must be developed for the Colombian population, making it possible to identify skeletonized individuals.
