Abstract Archaeological research in the southwest of Chubut indicates that it would have been occupied continuously, although with local differences, from the early Holocene to the present. Located on a mobility corridor mentioned in ethnohistoric sources, Colonia El Chalía is an indigenous reserve currently inhabited by direct descendants of nineteenth-century hunter-gatherers groups. Archaeological studies carried out indicate its occupation at least since the late Holocene and characterize the area as a set of settlements with frequent reuse, prolonged permanence and a high diversity of activities represented. To expand the information produced so far for the understanding of the ways of inhabiting this space in the past, this paper presents the results obtained from the analysis of ithic surface material from new surveys. An outstanding variability is observed between nearby sites, therefore the originally formulated characterization is discussed and complexed, and concordance and/or disagreement with the postulated in previous works about the technological strategies applied concerning the use of raw materials and distribution in the space of manufacturing activities of lithic instruments are evaluated.
