description Zooarchaeological studies in the Chaco region are essential to clarify various aspects of the prehispanic societies that lived there. We present the results of the analysis of the faunal remains recovered in the archaeological site La Ilusión I (SChaSmar 3.1), located on a moderate elevation linked with a lagoon in the region of Esteros, Cañadas, and Selvas de Ribera of the Humid Chaco. The occupational component is identified as a layer of shells with cultural deposits dated to 630+40 14C years BP (LP-2440), and it currently represents the northern limit of the influence of the Goya-Malabrigo Archaeological Entity. We carried out the anatomical and taxonomic determination of the sample as well as the quantification and analysis of bone modification. Results show the use of low energy return fauna such as mollusks, fish, and, to a lesser extent, small rodents. The difference with most of the sites previously analyzed in the region is the low representation of coypu.
