This paper presents the current state of studies in this archaeological locality. New results on faunal analysis (taxonomic and anatomical determinations) and lithic analysis (mineral pigments, refitting, and raw material identification) are pre-sented. Ground stone tools (grinding tools, bola stones, hammerstones, anvils, abraders, and composite tools) are analyzed with particular emphasis. This assemblage was mainly made of local raw materials. Rocks from immedi-ate or long distance sources were also exploited. Most of the grinding tools and all bolas stones were modified by manufacture. The use of unmodified blanks was frequent between the hammerstones. Multiple used surfaces were frequently registered. Maintenance tasks were identified, as well as the presence of recycled artifacts. The analysis of the different archaeological evidences from Nutria Mansa locality shows multiple activities developed in camps of hunter-gatherers groups located close to the maritime coast of Buenos Aires Province. Las investigaciones desarrolladas en la localidad arqueológica Nutria Mansa (partidos de General Alvarado y Lobería) han aportado importante información para el estudio de los cazadores-recolectores pampeanos que ocuparon el litoral marítimo bonaerense a finales del Holoceno. En este trabajo se presenta el estado actual de los estudios sobre la base de nuevos resultados del análisis faunístico (determinaciones taxonómicas y anatómicas, cuantificación zooarqueológica) y lítico (pigmentos minerales, remontajes, identificación de materias primas). Asimismo, se estudian con especial énfasis los artefactos picados y/o abradidos de la localidad. Este conjunto artefactual incluye instrumentos de molienda, bolas de boleadoras, percutores, yunques, abradidores-pulidores y artefactos compuestos. Se utilizaron rocas de procedencia principalmente local, y otras de fuentes inmediatamente disponibles u obtenidas a larga distancia. La mayor parte de los instrumentos de molienda y todas las bolas de boleadoras fueron manufacturadas, mientras que en los percutores fue frecuente aprovechar formas-base naturales sin modificaciones previas al uso. Se destaca la alta presencia de múltiples caras activas en cada pieza en la mayoría del conjunto picado y/o abradido. Se identificaron diferentes estrategias de mantenimiento y administración del desgaste, así como también evidencias del reciclaje de artefactos. El análisis de las diferentes evidencias arqueo-lógicas de la localidad Nutria Mansa permite abordar las múltiples actividades desarrolladas en campamentos de cazadores-recolectores asentados en las cercanías al litoral marítimo bonaerense. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/1812 10.34096/arqueologia.t18.n0.1812 spa Instituto de Arqueología, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/1812/1696 Arqueología; Vol. 18 (2012); 153-180 Arqueología; Vol. 18 (2012); 153-180 1853-8126 0327-5159 cazadores-recolectores costa atlántica pampeana Holoceno tardío tecnología lítica análisis faunístico hunter-gatherers Pampean Atlantic coast Late Holocene Litic technology faunal analysis Current archaeological research at the Nutria Mansa locality.
