| Sumario: | Identify reelaborated fossils requires knowing the meaning of the term taphonomic reelaboration and the diagnostic criteria that can be used to test such preservation state. In the present work: 1) we make explicit the meaning of the taphonomic terms: accumulation, remotion or reworking, resedimentation and reelaboration, understood as diverse categories of the same taphonomic classification system; 2) showing a model of the process of taphonomic reelaboration; and 3) displaying diverse examples of accumulated (2), resedimented (2) and reelaborated (16) ammonites. |
