Resum

El registre funerari argàric detallat, ric i divers ofereix l'oportunitat d'explorar dimensions socials que normalment són difícils de trobar en la investigació prehistòrica, com ara les normes socials sobre drets i obligacions familiars, la tolerància sexual i el paper de les pràctiques funeràries per a mantenir l'organització econòmica i política. Aquest article aborda aquests temes mitjançant una anàlisi del significat social dels sepulcres dobles argàrics mirant al tractament corporal i la composició d'acumulacions de béns funeraris segons el sexe i la classe social. L'Argar sembla haver estat una societat conservadora, poc tolerant amb l'homosexualitat, i disposada a celebrar els avantpassats associats a certs llocs com un mitjà per afirmar drets de residència i propietat.
