At the end of the Levantine Epipalaeolithic, during the Natufian period (13 000-9 500 BC, calibrated), some hunter-gatherer populations had adopted a sedentary way of life. With the first permanent settlements, a new organisation of the dwelling area emerged, into which the dead were integrated. In this work, Natufian human remains are thoroughly examined, to improve our knowledge of their biological features and to determine how representative this available sample is, compared to the whole population. Burial practices have been analysed, through unpublished field records and osteological data.
