CARBALLO MARINA, Flavia; BAUTISTA BELARDI, Juan  e  L'HEUREUX, G. Lorena. New data on hunter-gatherer coastal use at the southern tip of the continent during the Late Holocene: Cabovírgenes 24 site (Santa Cruz, Argentina). Rev. Mus. Antropol. [online]. 2017, vol.10, n.1, pp.49-52. ISSN 1852-060X.

Cabo Vírgenes 24 (CV24) is an archaeological site located at the Southeastern end of continental Patagonia and shows occupations between 753 to 888 (1270 ± 60 14C B.P; LP3229) and 545 to 626 Cal B.P (619 ± 26 14C B.P; AA106800). Lithic artifacts were mainly made on locally available raw material (RGFO and dacite). The identified technological expedient component is in accordance to inland guanaco hunters. The faunal record exposes a low density and moderate richness of marine and terrestrial faunal species. There is an emphasis on pinnipeds exploitation (Arctocephalus australis and Otaria flavescens) followed by guanaco (Lama guanicoe) and a lesser use of seabirds (Phalacrocorax sp., Spheniscus magellanicus and Aptenodytes patagonica). The archaeological record of CV24 reaffirms the observed trends related to the sporadic and marginal use of Cabo Vírgenes area by hunter-gatherer populations since the Late Holocene until the European contact.
