Borrero, Luis Hunter Gatherers Archaeology Cazadores Recolectores Arqueología Archeologists and ethnographers have recently devoted considerable effort to the study of hunter-gatherer societies. When the results of these works were applied to archeology, a series of very useful discussions were generated, which focused mainly on: (1) inference methodology, (2) mutual limits between archeology and ethnography, and (3 ) relevance of the present to understand the past. I will present a discussion about them. These three themes are inextricably linked together, so I will not discuss them separately, but together. It can be said that there is a great general issue - the role of argument by analogy - that is present in each of the three themes mentioned above. So it can be said that all these discussions generated around hunters and gatherers, both living and extinct, essentially depend on the concept of argument by analogy. Arqueólogos y etnógrafos han dedicado recientemente considerable esfuerzo al estudio de las sociedades de cazadores y recolectores. Cuando se quiso aplicar el resultado de dichos trabajos a la arqueología se generaron una serie de discusiones muy útiles, las que se enfocaron principalmente sobre: (1) metodología de la inferencia, (2) límites mutuos entre la arqueología y etnografía, y (3) relevancia del presente para entender el pasado. Presentaré una discusión sobre los mismos. Estos tres temas están inextricablemente unidos entre sí, por lo que no los discutiré por separado, sino en conjunto. Se puede decir que hay un gran asunto general -el papel del argumento por analogía- que está presente en cada uno de los tres temas arriba mencionados. Por ello se puede decir que todas estas discusiones generadas alrededor de los cazadores y recolectores, tanto vivientes como extintos, dependen esencialmente del concepto de argumento por analogía.
