In southern Mendoza province, researches deal with this issue in the context of large scale process, such as introduction of food production and intensification in the exploitation of resources (ca. 2000 yr BP). Although mobility can be understood through stable oxygen isotopes (?18O) we could employ other high resolution proxies, observed at an individual level, to strengthen the evidence. The aim of this work is to articulate isotopic data with degenerative joint diseases and entheseal changes to discuss human strategies about subsistence and mobility that were implemented at the end of Late Holocene. For this purpose, osteological samples of ten archaeological sites from middle Atuel valley (n=25), a place where was discussed the limit of agriculture and intensification process, were studied. We compare isolated versus multiple burials with chronologies after 2000 years BP. Activity patterns point out that high mobility is maintained even after incorporation of cultigens. Considering an ideal dichotomous model (mobile huntergatherers vs sedentary farmers) these tendencies could be understood as a result of a combination of productive and extractive strategies. La variabilidad en la movilidad humana es uno de los tópicos arqueológicos más abordados en el estudio de las sociedades del pasado. En el sur de la provincia de Mendoza las investigaciones han estudiado la movilidad en el marco de procesos como la introducción de la producción de alimentos y la intensificación en la explotación de los recursos (ca. 2000 años AP). Si bien se ha logrado entender gran parte de esta movilidad a través de los isótopos de ?18O, es necesario ajustar estos patrones con otros indicadores que puedan observarse a nivel del individuo. En el presente trabajo se articulan estos datos isotópicos con información derivada del análisis de lesiones degenerativas articulares y cambios entésicos que permitan discutir las estrategias de subsistencia y movilidad que implementaron las poblaciones que habitaron la región a finales del Holoceno tardío. Se analizaron muestras osteológicas humanas de diez sitios arqueológicos de la cuenca del Atuel (n=25). Se comparó un entierro múltiple mezclado con entierros aislados e individualizados, que presentan cronologías posteriores a los 2000 años AP. Los patrones de actividad identificados indican grupos que mantienen una alta movilidad para momentos posteriores a la introducción de los cultígenos en el área. Partiendo de un modelo dicotómico ideal (cazadores-recolectores móviles/agricultores sedentarios) pueden entenderse estas tendencias como el resultado de estrategias que combinan a través del tiempo y del espacio, lo productivo y lo extractivo.
