We present integrated spectra in the optical range for 10 concentrated Mag- ellanic Clouds' (MCs) stellar clusters, six of them belonging to the Large Magellanic Cloud, and the other four to the Small Magellanic Cloud. The spectra were obtained with the EFOSC2 spectrograph (NTT-ESO, La Silla, Chile). We estimate simultaneously age and foreground reddening by com- paring the continuum distribution and line strengths of the cluster spectra with those of template spectra. The present cluster sample complements previous ones, in an effort to create a spectral library for the MCs with sev- eral clusters per age bin. FULL TEXT IN SPANISH

Abstract
We present integrated spectra in the optical range for 10 concentrated Mag- ellanic Clouds' (MCs) stellar clusters, six of them belonging to the Large Magellanic Cloud, and the other four to the Small Magellanic Cloud. The spectra were obtained with the EFOSC2 spectrograph (NTT-ESO, La Silla, Chile). We estimate simultaneously age and foreground reddening by com- paring the continuum distribution and line strengths of the cluster spectra with those of template spectra. The present cluster sample complements previous ones, in an effort to create a spectral library for the MCs with sev- eral clusters per age bin.
