Síntesis de los estudios arqueomalacológicos en concheros de la Costa Norte de Santa Cruz, Patagonia Argentina. Síntese de estudos arqueomalacológicos em conchas do litoral norte de Santa Cruz, Patagônia, Argentina.

The research have been developed from a regional perspective in which intensive surveys have been implemented to study of the record of shell middens complemented with stratigraphic excavations, which have allowed to obtain representative and comparable samples of the deposits. The archaeomalacological studies involved the anatomical and taxonomic identification of the remains, its quantification, and the evaluation of conservation characteristics, biometric studies and the identification of taphonomic processes that have affected the exoskeletons. It was possible to identify the species selected by the human groups as food, the main processes of site formation of the shell middens and a possible process of intensification in the exploitation of the malacological resource in the southern sector of the area during the late Holocene. The different lines of work have provided information on subsistence, gathering behavior and modes of space occupation. They have also allowed discussing paleoenvironmental, taphonomic and technological issues. Se presenta una síntesis de los estudios arqueomalacológicos sobre exoesqueletos de moluscos recuperados en concheros en el área de la costa norte de la provincia de Santa Cruz, Patagonia argentina. Los trabajos se han desarrollado a partir de una perspectiva arqueológica regional en la cual se han implementado prospecciones intensivas para el registro de concheros, complementadas con excavaciones estratigráficas, las cuales han permitido obtener muestras representativas de los depósitos, y a su vez, comparables entre sí. Los estudios arqueomalacológicos involucraron la identificación anatómica y taxonómica de los restos, su cuantificación, la evaluación del estado de conservación, estudios biométricos y la identificación de los procesos tafonómicos que han afectado a los exoesqueletos. Fue posible identificar a las especies seleccionadas por los grupos humanos como alimento, los principales procesos de formación de los concheros y un posible proceso de intensificación en la explotación del recurso malacológico en el sector sur del área durante el Holoceno tardío. Las diferentes líneas de trabajo han aportado información para conocer diversas características del pasado humano relacionadas con la subsistencia, las conductas de recolección y los modos de ocupación del espacio. Además, han permitido discutir aspectos paleoambientales, tafonómicos y tecnológicos. Centro de Estudios Históricos.
