The presence of R. americana remains with evidence of human consumption was registered in several archaeological sites of Santiago del Estero province. This species would have been second or third in order of importance in the diet of ancient human groups after camelids in the agro-pottery period. In this paper, the R. Americana remains of the Beltrán Onofre Banegas-Lami Hernández archaeological site (Sunchitúyoj context, late agro-pottery period, ca. 800-300 BP) are analyzed in order to evaluate the processes that generated its record. Quantification, comparison with frames of reference and taphonomic analysis of materials were performed. In this sense, a higher proportion of hindlimb elements, a lesser extent of the axial skeleton and a low proportion of forelimb are observed. These remains show evidence of anthropic accumulation and we considered that the incidence of the natural agents’ action was not significant. From the results, it follows that human activities were the main factor contributing to a differential skeletal parts representation. El rol de Rhea americana en la subsistencia de los antiguos pobladores ha sido analizado en diferentes regiones del país, principalmente en la Pampeana y Patagónica. En varios sitios de la provincia de Santiago del Estero se registra la presencia de R. americana con evidencias directas de consumo, y habría ocupado el segundo o tercer puesto de importancia en los recursos faunísticos de los grupos humanos luego de los camélidos para el período agroalfarero. En este trabajo se analizan los restos de R. americana del sitio Beltrán Onofre Banegas-Lami Hernández (contexto Sunchitúyoj, período agroalfarero tardío, ca. 800-300 AP) con el fin de evaluar los procesos que generaron su registro. Se realizó la cuantificación, la comparación con marcos de referencia y el análisis tafonómico de los materiales. En este sentido, se observa una mayor proporción de los elementos del miembro posterior, en menor medida del esqueleto axial y escaso del miembro anterior. Estos restos presentan evidencias de acumulación antrópica y una incidencia de la acción de agentes naturales que consideramos no fue significativa. De los resultados obtenidos, se infiere que la actividad antrópica fue el principal factor que contribuyó a una proporción diferencial de partes esqueletarias Facultad de Filosofía y Humanidades.
