Abstract

This paper contains a study about the skeletal remains of an individual buried in the necropolis of San Nicolás de Bari (Burgos, Spain). The individual, a 20-to-25-year-old woman deceased in the 15th-17th centuries, showed multiple signs of a chronic infectious disease. The direct observation of skeletal remains led to discard leprosy, brucellosis and tuberculosis, the fnal conclusion being that it was a case of treponematosis
