Sumario:   In this study, we aim to advance the understanding of the relationship between people and plants in the El Alto-Ancasti region (Catamarca, Argentina) during the first millennium of the Era. To achieve this, we approach the multiple analysis of plant microremains adhered to two objects from a paleoethnobotanical perspective: a grinding artifact and a ceramic container, both originating from the archaeological site Oyola 31. This site is located in the town of Oyola (El Alto-Catamarca) and has been interpreted as a sporadic and temporary occupation site. This research has enabled us to uncover the pathways of plant incorporation into these artifacts and contribute to understanding their functionality. It has also provided insights into the plant species and/or families associated with the people in this location.
