On this occasion, the results of the analysis of the human remains exhumed in the ¨El Pelícano¨ archaeological site (SChaGüe 2.0), which is in connection with a lagoon that forms part of the meanders of the old course of the Bermejo River (Argentina), are presented. The radiocarbon dating of the remains involved established an age of 410±40 years 14C AP (LP3165).

Las investigaciones bioantropológicas más recientes realizadas en el Gran Chaco meridional contribuyen a revertir el estado de desconocimiento que caracterizaba a las poblaciones humanas prehispánicas de esas latitudes. En esta oportunidad se presentan los resultados del análisis de los restos humanos exhumados en el sitio arqueológico El Pelícano (SChaGüe 2.0) el cual se encuentra en vinculación con una laguna que forma parte de los meandros del antiguo cauce del Río Bermejo (Argentina). La datación radiocarbónica de los restos involucrados estableció una antigüedad de 410±40 años 14C AP (LP3165). Se pudo constatar la presencia de dos individuos adultos, de sexo masculino y femenino con estaturas 166,43cm - 172,97cm y 152,88cm - 160,32cm, respectivamente. Del análisis paleopatológico se descartan indicadores de stress metabólico y ocupacional, no obstante se detectaron signos de periodontitis, caries, granulomas y pronunciado desgaste evidenciando consumo de alimentos con características abrasivas. Estos resultados permiten introducir nueva información en una región prácticamente inexplorada en términos arqueológicos y contribuye a la discusión de cambio y continuidad arqueológica etnográfica de las Tierras Bajas sudamericanas.
