| Sumario: | The following work aims to present the preliminary results of the investigations carried out at the Guayamba 2 site, which is located in the homonymous locality, in the department of El Alto, Catamarca province. The settlement consists of four structures and is located in the humid forest zone of Sierra de El Alto Ancasti region. It is related to Casa Pintada, a cave with rock art representations, located about 190 m in a straight line to the south. So far, our team has done two surveys in two structures and we have begun the excavation of the third. From these studies we have recover: ware shreds and lithic remains, and some fauna. The results of the analysis of the recovered material would indicate that in the site a variety of domestic practices were performed (preparation and consumption of food, elaboration of lithic artefacts, among others) consistent with a site of permanent occupation. |
