Preliminary studies indicated that in this sector of the study area resourcing practices during the Final Late Holocene had an emphasis on fish seasonal exploitation. In a new field work, a large amount of faunal remains have been recovered. However, only fish bones have been analyzed in detail. In this work, the results of the analysis realized on the remaining small vertebrates as well as on the large faunal remains, are presented. Moreover, these results and those previously obtained are integrated in order to determine the role of each species in the diet. The information generated confirms the trends already observed. The exploitation of fish, mainly marine, would have been the most important activity related to subsistence. The guanaco was consumed as well, although it was not an important resource in the diet. Finally, the remaining species of small vertebrates were not exploited and their presence on the site would be related to natural causes. El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar los resultados de los análisis arqueofaunísticos realizados en el sitio San Antonio 1 (partido de Villarino, provincia de Buenos Aires), correspondiente a la localidad arqueológica San Antonio. Estudios preliminares indicaron que en este sector del área de estudio las prácticas de obtención de recursos durante el Holoceno tardío final tuvieron un énfasis en la explotación estacional de peces. Nuevos trabajos de campo permitieron recuperar una importante cantidad de restos faunísticos, de los cuales sólo fueron analizados en profundidad los restos correspondientes a peces. En este trabajo, se presentan los resultados de los análisis realizados sobre las restantes especies de fauna menor así como de los taxones de fauna mayor y se los integra a los obtenidos previamente con el fin de determinar el rol relativo de cada especie en la dieta. Los datos obtenidos confirman las tendencias derivadas de estudios previos. La explotación de peces, principalmente marinos, habría sido la actividad más importante ligada a la subsistencia. Asimismo, el guanaco fue un recurso consumido aunque no ocupó un lugar importante en la dieta. Finalmente, las restantes especies de fauna menor no fueron explotadas y su ingreso al sitio estaría relacionado con causas naturales. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/2235 10.34096/arqueologia.t21.n2.2235 spa Instituto de Arqueología, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/2235/1896 Arqueología; Vol. 21 No. 2 (2015): May-August; 193-209 Arqueología; Vol. 21 Núm. 2 (2015): mayo-agosto; 193-209 1853-8126 0327-5159 Curso inferior del río Colorado Holoceno tardío final Subsistencia peces marinos Lower basin of the Colorado River Final Late Holocene Subsistence marine fish Archaeofaunal analysis in San Antonio 1 Site (Lower basin of the Colorado River, Argentina): state of the art Análisis arqueofaunísticos en el sitio San Antonio 1 (curso inferior del Río Colorado, Argentina): estado de la cuestión 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=2235_oai
