This paper focuses on two species of this family, Syagrusromanzoffiana and Butia yatay which micro and macroremains have been preserved in Late Holocene archaeological sites in the Argentinean Northeast. The archaeological record indicates that they were important in the diet and surely in technology. In addition, ethnographic groups belonging to different linguistic stocks (Tupi, Macro-Jê, Guaycurú) show that these plants had a central role in La Plata Basin. However, prior to this study it had not been done any systematic analysis in the Northeast region, or approaches from different lines of analysis in order to increase the taxonomic and economic information that can be obtained from both palms remains. By the review of the ethnographic literature, the determination of fruit net returns and the study of the qualitative-quantitative attributes of endocarps, the potential uses of this resource and the fruit productivity are established, and tools for taxonomic identification are also provided.

La distribución meridional de las palmeras de la familia Arecaceae (=Palmae) en Sudamérica alcanza el sur de la cuenca del Plata. Este artículo se centra en dos especies de esta familia, Syagrus romanzoffiana y Butia yatay, cuyos micro y macrorrestos se han preservado en los sitios arqueológicos del Holoceno tardío en el Nordeste argentino. El registro arqueológico indica que fueron importantes para la alimentación y, seguramente, en la tecnología. Además, grupos etnográficos pertenecientes a distintos troncos lingüísticos (tupí, macro-jê, guaycurú) muestran que estos vegetales tuvieron un rol central en el Plata. A pesar de ello, hasta el presente estudio no se había efectuado en el Nordeste un análisis sistemático y desde distintas líneas de trabajo que permitan incrementar la información taxonómica y económica que se puede obtener de los restos de ambas palmeras. A partir de la revisión de la literatura etnográfica, la determinación de la utilidad neta de los frutos y el estudio de los atributos cuali-cuantitativos de los endocarpos, se establecen los usos potenciales de este recurso y la productividad de sus frutos y se brindan herramientas para la identificación taxonómica. Todo ello permite profundizar los conocimientos sobre la utilización prehispánicas de las palmeras en la región. Facultad de Filosofía y Humanidades.
