ESCOSTEGUY, Paula; GONZALEZ, Miranda Rivas; FIEL, M. Victoria  e  VIGNA, Mariana. BY LOBOS LAKE SHORE: THE TECHO COLORADO ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE (SALADO RIVER MICROREGION, BUENOS AIRES PROVINCE). Comechingonia [online]. 2017, vol.21, n.2, pp.1-10. ISSN 1851-0027.

Techo Colorado site is situated in the margins of the Lobos shallow lake (Lobos district, Buenos Aires province), this lake is part of the lower basin of the Salado river. Fieldworks started on 1987 and 1988. Then in 2009 and 2010, new surveys and excavation were carried out, these fieldworks offered new data about hunter-gatherer-fishers who lived nearby the lake during Late Holocene. The aim of this paper is to deepen our knowledge about pre Hispanic societies that settled near this lake, using different lines of evidence as macroscopic and thermal analysis on pottery, the zooarchaeological and taphonomic studies and the techno-morphological description of lithic materials. These results are integrated with data previously obtained from petrographic studies and from the analysis of archaeological fatty residues, which as a whole enables us to propose that the inhabitants in Techo Colorado were well-equipped with the technology required for capture and process preys as well as to cook these resources. In summary, evidence from this site is similar to that registered on other assemblages from Salado river wetland and they would have been linked by social networks.
