description This paper explores the role of terrestrial lipids in hunter-gatherer subsistence along the southern coast of Tierra del Fuego during the late Holocene.  In this regard, the results from two independent lines of evidence are discussed: zooarchaeological studies of the processing of guanacos bones, and carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes analyses on human bone remains. d13C y d15N values show that human groups consumed mainly marine foods, but with a contribution in equal parts of C3 energy and marine energy. This result suggests a high intake of terrestrial lipids and carbohydrates, even when dietary protein is mainly of marine origin. It is consistent with the use of costly extractive techniques related to the preparation of bone grease observed in the zooarchaeological record. Butchering strategy is not, however, similar in all archaeological localities on the southern coast of Tierra del Fuego, which probably is related to the differential availability of guanacos. In this sense, scheduled handling of fats may have been required to cope with the occasional deficit of lipids and to secure its provision in the area and throughout the annual cycle.

Se cruzan los resultados de dos líneas de evidencia independientes: estudios sobre el procesamiento de los restos óseos de camélidos y análisis de isótopos estables de carbono y nitrógeno sobre los restos humanos. Los valores d13C y d15N indican que los individuos consumieron en mayor medida alimentos marinos, pero con una contribución en partes iguales de energía C3 y energía marina; sugiriendo una ingesta elevada de lípidos y carbohidratos terrestres aun en dietas cuyas proteínas son predominantemente marinas. Los resultados son consistentes con el procesamiento de guanacos, que señalan el empleo de costosas técnicas extractivas relacionadas con la obtención de grasa ósea. No obstante, estos modos de procesar las presas no se desarrollaron de manera similar en todas las localidades del litoral sur, situación que posiblemente guarde relación con la disponibilidad diferencial de guanacos. En este sentido, un manejo planificado de las grasas pudo haber sido requerido para enfrentar el déficit ocasional de lípidos y asegurar su aprovisionamiento en todo el espacio y a lo largo del ciclo anual. Este documento discute o papel desempenhado pelos lipídios terrestres na subsistência dos grupos de caçadores-colectores na costa sul da Terra do Fogo durante o Holocénico tardio. Os resultados de duas linhas de evidência independentes são cruzados: estudos sobre o processamento de restos esqueléticos de camelídeos e análise de isótopos estáveis de carbono e nitrogênio de restos humanos. Os valores d13C e d15N indicam que os indivíduos consumiram principalmente alimentos marinhos, mas com uma contribuição igual de energia C3 e energia marinha; sugerindo uma alta ingestão de lipídios e carboidratos terrestres mesmo em dietas cujas proteínas são predominantemente marinhas. Os resultados são consistentes com o processamento do guanaco, indicando o uso de técnicas extrativas dispendiosas relacionadas com a obtenção de gordura óssea. Entretanto, estes modos de processamento de presas não foram desenvolvidos de maneira similar em todas as localidades da costa sul, uma situação possivelmente relacionada à disponibilidade diferencial dos guanacos. Neste sentido, pode ter sido necessário um manejo planejado das gorduras para lidar com eventuais déficits lipídicos e para garantir seu fornecimento em todo o espaço e durante todo o ciclo anual.
