| Sumario: | The Arroyo La Glorieta site (Lower Delta of Parana River, Buenos Aires) was excavated in 1926 by technician of the La Plata Museum Antonio Castro. Because of the funerary urns recovered back then, it was regarded as a cemetery. The archaeological materials and human remains were kept in the divisions of Archaeology and Anthropology at the Museum of La Plata. After almost ninety years of the excavation just recently these materials began to be studied systematically. This paper presents the first results of analyzes performed on pottery and human remains from the site. With this, it is intended to contribute to the knowledge of indigenous occupation of the region and, in particular, of the Guarani that arrived at these latitudes in earlier times to conquest. |
