description In the present contribution lizards remains recovered in the archaeological site Orejas de Burro 1 (OB1), located in the volcanic field PaliAike, South of the province of Santa Cruz (Argentina) are described. Materials include remains of coronoids, dentaries, frontals, maxillae, premaxillae, long bones,parietals,vertebrae and other bone fragments. Osteological features allow the taxonomic assignment of these elements to the genus Liolaemus. Until now, more than 100 left dentaries and 100 right dentaries have been recognized, supporting the presence of at least 100 individuals. The abundance of owl regurgitation pellets would explain the entrance of the lizard remains in the site. The record of lizards in OB1 is the third recognition of the genus Liolaemus in an archaeological site of Argentina, constituting the southernmost finding until now, and the most abundant and diverse in osteological elements. So far, the archaeological sites of Patagonia are characterized by the taxonomic homogeneity of lizards, where the only taxon recognized is Liolaemus.
