You're correct, \head is the cause of the error and it's better to 
replace it with

     \starthead {...}
         ...
     \stophead

but there are more things which can be changed to use modern syntax (in 
many cases part of ConTeXt since nearly a decade).


A few examples:

     - \startexercici[<REFRENCE>]{<TITLE>}  --> 
\startexercici[reference=...,title=...]

     - \placetable[<PLACEMENT>][<REFERENCE>]{<TITLE>}{...} -->  
\startplacetable[reference=...,location=...,title=...] ... \stopplacetable

     - Llimones........ \hfill 6  -->  Llimones \filler[symbol] 6

     - \bigskip  -->  \blank[big]
