It presents evidences belonging to a hunter-gatherer settlement site, and its archaeological assemblage includes numerous faunal bone remains, with the wide predominance of marine resources. The goal of this paper is to obtain information in order to understand the role of different faunal resources in the subsistence of the ancient groups that inhabited the zone. To such purpose, a zooarchaeological analysis that include a taxonomic and anatomic determination of the recovered materials, was performed. The obtained results from those studies were discussed with ethnohistorical data as complementary information. We could determine some differences on the exploitation and consumption modes between two large mammals (pinnipeds and camelids). The preliminary studies suggest that it was a group with a broad-spectrum economy, with a predominance of marine fauna, represented by different age classes. Thus, hypotheses on an extended occupation in the coast, are enunciated. The intensive exploitation of marine resources in comparison with the terrestrial resources appears to indicate a preference by the former, leading to postulate a seasonal mobility along the coast and not necessarily to the interior lands. El sitio Cueva del Negro, ubicado en la Bahía del Oso Marino (Costa Norte de Santa Cruz), posee eviden­cias correspondientes a un asentamiento cazador-recolector cuyo registro arqueofaunístico presenta numerosos restos óseos de distintas especies, con gran preponderancia de recursos marinos. El objetivo de este trabajo es obtener información que permita aproximarnos al entendimiento del papel que jugaron los diferentes recursos faunísticos en la subsistencia de los antiguos habitantes de la zona. Para su consecución, se recurrió a la zooar­queología mediante la determinación taxonómica y anatómica de los especímenes recuperados. Los resultados obtenidos fueron complementados con datos provenientes de las fuentes etnohistóricas. Se pudieron determinar diferencias en los modos de explotación y consumo entre dos mamíferos de gran porte (pinnípedos y camélidos). Los estudios preliminares sugieren que estamos frente a un grupo con una economía de amplio espectro, con pre­dominio de fauna marina, representada por diferentes grupos etarios. Esto nos llevó a enunciar hipótesis relativas a una ocupación más prolongada en la costa. La intensa explotación de los recursos marinos en comparación con los terrestres indicaría una preferencia por los primeros, lo que llevó a postular una movilidad estacional a lo largo de la costa y no necesariamente hacia el interior. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/1841 10.34096/arqueologia.t17.n0.1841 spa Instituto de Arqueología, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/1841/1724 Arqueología; Vol. 17 (2011); 137-159 Arqueología; Vol. 17 (2011); 137-159 1853-8126 0327-5159 Cazadores-recolectores Costa patagónica Análisis arqueofaunístico Recursos marinos Hunter-gatherers Patagonian coast Archaeofaunal analysis Marine resources Marine vs. terrestrial resources: Archaeofaunal analysis at Cueva del Negro site, north coast of Santa Cruz Recursos marinos vs. recursos terrestres: análisis arqueofaunístico en el sitio Cueva del Negro, costa Norte de Santa Cruz info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=arqueo&d=1841_oai
