Resumen
PIANA, Ernesto Luis; VAZQUEZ, Martín y ALVAREZ, Myria. Nuevos resultados del estudio del sitio Ajej I: un aporte a la variabilidad de estrategias de los canoeros fueguinos. Runa [online]. 2008, vol.29, pp.87-100. ISSN 1851-9628.
The study of the archaeological site Ajej I dated between 1300 and 1400 BP is the result of a rescue excavation carried out in the northern coast of the Beagle Channel, an area peopled by sea littoral hunter-gatherers since the seventh millennium BP. The analyses results pinpoint that the site is characterized by: a) a low redundant occupation; b) a selectivity of the pinnipeds as preys; c) a differential distribution of their anatomical parts; and d) a low diversity of activities carried with the lithic instruments. Besides, these studies provided an early date to the presence of bows and arrows in such an austral region. Results enable to discuss on the variability of the strategies carried on by those sea nomads.
