Abstract Discoidal stones have been recorded in early sites in South America, sometimes associated with fishtail projectile points. This paper presents two discoidal stones recovered at La Campanita Alto 17, an open-air archaeological site, bass of Sarmiento, Chubut Province. The morphological characteristics of the artifacts and lithic raw materials are exposed and whether both pieces could have been used together it is discussed, as well as their chronology in relation to geomorphological and archaeological context of the study area. This information allows us to broaden the known geographic distribution for discoidal stones in Patagonia. In addition, the presence of these artifacts is of great relevance since they constitute evidences that allow us to discuss the early occupation process in the area.
