description In this research work we present the results that we obtained as a result of the analysis of an animal bone sample from the Cochinoca 1, archaeological site located in the homonymous town of the puna in Jujuy province, in Argentina. The questions we presented for the research are three: determine the proportion of wild animals in the bone set in order to discuss the importance they had for human communities; the strategy of the herders linked to the management of llama herds and what animal species and parts of the skeleton were used so as to discuss whether there was differential access to them. Using some of the methodological tools that zooarchaeology offers, we were able to obtain results that allowed us to discuss these questions, reaching interpretations that show that: wild animals were not important for the people who inhabited the site, except in the case of wild camelids, which are always represented in smaller quatities than the domesticated ones; and that the shepherds opted for a herd management aimed mainly at raising animals for meat consumption and, in a lesser amount, animals destined for loading tasks.

The questions we presented for the research are three: determine the proportion of wild animals in the bone set in order to discuss the importance they had for human communities; the strategy of the herders linked to the management of llama herds and what animal species and parts of the skeleton were used so as to discuss whether there was differential access to them. Using some of the methodological tools that zooarchaeology offers, we were able to obtain results that allowed us to discuss these questions, reaching interpretations that show that: wild animals were not important for the people who inhabited the site, except in the case of wild camelids, which are always represented in smaller quatities than the domesticated ones; and that the shepherds opted for a herd management aimed mainly at raising animals for meat consumption and, in a lesser amount, animals destined for loading tasks. En este trabajo de investigación presentamos los resultados que obtuvimos del análisis de una muestra ósea animal procedente del sitio arqueológico Cochinoca 1, ubicado en la localidad homónima de la puna de la provincia de Jujuy, Argentina. Los interrogantes que planteamos para la investigación son tres: determinar la proporción de animales silvestres en el conjunto óseo con el objetivo de discutir la importancia que tuvieron para las comunidades humanas; descubrir la estrategia de los pastores vinculada al manejo de los rebaños de llamas; y definir qué especies animales y partes de los esqueletos se aprovechaban para discutir si existió un acceso diferencial a las distintas partes. Utilizando algunas de las herramientas metodológicas que ofrece la zooarqueología, pudimos obtener resultados que nos permitieron discutir estos interrogantes, y arribar así a interpretaciones que dan cuenta de que los animales silvestres no fueron importantes para las personas que habitaron el sitio, salvo en el caso de los camélidos, grupo en el cual los silvestres aparecen representados aunque siempre en cantidades menores a las de los domesticados y frente a los que los pastores optaron por un manejo de los rebaños orientado principalmente a la cría de animales para el consumo de carne y, en menor medida, para tareas de carga.  Dans ce travail de recherche, nous présentons les résultats que nous avons obtenus à la suite de l’analyse d’un échantillon d’os animal du site archéologique de Cochinoca 1 situé dans la localité homonyme de la puna de la province de Jujuy, en Argentine. Les questions que nous nous posons pour la recherche sont au nombre de trois: déterminer la proportion d’animaux sauvages dans l’ensemble osseux afin de discuter de l’importance qu’ils avaient pour les communautés humaines; découvrir la stratégie des éleveurs liée à la gestion des troupeaux de lamas et définir quelles espèces animales et quelles parties du squelette étaient utilisées pour discuter de l’existence d’un accès différentiel à ces dernières. En utilisant certains des outils méthodologiques qu’offre la zooarchéologie, nous avons pu obtenir des résultats qui nous ont permis de discuter  ces questions, aboutissant à des interprétations qui montrent que les animaux sauvages n’étaient pas importants pour les personnes qui habitaient le site, sauf dans le cas des camélidés où les sauvages y sont représentés, bien que toujours en plus petites quantités que les animaux domestiques, et que les bergers ont opté pour une gestion de troupeau visant principalement à élever des animaux destinés à la consommation de viande et dans une moindre mesure des animaux destinés à des tâches de chargement. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/esnoa/article/view/10131 10.34096/esnoa.n23.10131 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/esnoa/article/view/10131/8847 Estudios Sociales del NOA; Núm. 23 (2020); 101-124 2362-2482 0329-8256 Revisiting Cochinoca: results of the analysis of the bone sample from Cochinoca 1, puna of the province of Jujuy, Argentina Revisitando Cochinoca: resultados del análisis de la muestra ósea de Cochinoca 1, puna de la provincia de Jujuy, Argentina Revisiter Cochinoca: résultats de l’analyse de l’échantillon d’os de Cochinoca 1, puna de la province de Jujuy, Argentine info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=estusoc&d=10131_oai
