Fish and sea lions at Punta Odriozola and Arroyo Verde: Assessing the importance of marine resources along the western coast of the San Matias Gulf

Mostrar todas las versiones(3)

In this article, we present the first, marine vertebrate zooarchaeological results from the Punta Odriozola and Arroyo Verde sites, western coast of the San Matias Gulf (GSM), Río Negro. This area revealed a weaker and more discontinuous archaeological signal, when compared to the northern GSM coast...

This scenario invites us to re-evaluate the role of the west coast within the regional scheme, and to begin to understand a different coastal record to that of the north coast: one with less impact, but with great archaeological and paleoecological potential. En este trabajo se presentan los primeros resultados del análisis zooarqueológico de restos de vertebrados marinos en Punta Odriozola y Arroyo Verde, dos localidades de la costa oeste del Golfo San Matías (GSM), Río Negro. Este sector litoral, posee una señal arqueológica más tenue y discontinua espacial y temporalmente respecto de la costa norte del GSM, lo que hasta el momento, no permitía evaluar certeramente la diversidad y riqueza arqueológica de este tramo costero. Los resultados preliminares indican que los recursos marinos fueron explotados de forma complementaria a los recursos terrestres en este sector costero al menos entre el 3500 y 2800 AP. En tal sentido la diversidad y frecuencia de restos de peces y lobos marinos, implicaría la explotación redundante y deliberada de ciertos espacios costeros, como la plataforma litoral rocosa donde habrían existido apostaderos de lobos marinos así como disponibilidad de moluscos. Este panorama invita a reevaluar el rol de la costa oeste en el esquema regional y empezar a comprender un registro costero diferente al de la costa Norte: menos obtrusivo pero con gran potencial arqueológico y paleoecológico.
