Del casi centenar de cavernas localizadas se excavaron seis, encontr&aacute;ndose all&iacute; restos humanos con fechados radiocarb&oacute;nicos de 500 a&ntilde;os d.C. La finalidad del presente estudio consisti&oacute; en la determinaci&oacute;n de sustancias grupoespec&iacute;ficas ABO(H) en tejido blando momificado (piel y pelo), a partir de muestras de material provenientes de cinco de las seis cavernas excavadas. Para cumplir con ese objetivo, se procedi&oacute; a: (1) estandarizar las t&eacute;cnicas de aglutinaci&oacute;n mixta, inhibici&oacute;n de la aglutinaci&oacute;n y eluci&oacute;n, en piel y pelo actuales; (2) aplicar estas t&eacute;cnicas sobre muestras de un individuo, tomado al azar, de cada una de las cinco cavernas; y (3) comparar nuestros resultados respecto de otros estudios en restos prehisp&aacute;nicos de Sudam&eacute;rica. De los cinco individuos estudiados, cuatro demostraron especificidad A y el restante no pudo ser tipificado. Estos resultados apoyar&iacute;an la hip&oacute;tesis acerca de la presencia del ant&iacute;geno A en poblaciones precolombinas, y coinciden con estudios previos realizados por otros investigadores en restos prehisp&aacute;nicos sudamericanos.

Of the almost one hundred caves discovered, six were studied, from which several human remains were exhumed and dated 500 AD. The aim of the present study was the determination of ABO(H) specific group substances in mummified soft tissue (skin and hair) from samples of five<em>&nbsp;</em>of the six excavated caves. To fulfill this objective, the following, was performed: (1) Standardization of the mixed agglutination, agglutination inhibition and elution tests in fresh skin and hair samples from controls; (2) application of these tests on one mummified remain, chosen at random, from each of the five caves, and (3) comparison of our results with those obtained for other South American pre-Hispanic remains. Presence of A substance specificity was detected in four out of the five studied specimens; results for the remaining mummy were inconclusive. These findings support the hypothesis that the A antigen is present in pre-Columbian populations, and are in agreement with previous studies by other researches on South American pre-Hispanic human remains.
