Resumen
En este trabajo se presentan los primeros estudios arqueológicos realizados en las islas de Choele Choel (provincia de Río Negro, Argentina), y se describen con mayor detalle los hallazgos en el sitio Fábrega. En este sitio, las excavaciones sobre un médano permitieron recuperar artefactos líticos y restos óseos humanos y faunísticos, compatibles con una ocupación residencial. Los resultados muestran que el conjunto es similar a otros cercanos e incluye principalmente materiales provenientes de sectores altos del valle. En base a los materiales presentes y al estudio de imágenes satelitales, se propone que el sitio habría sido una ocupación en un meandro externo a la isla, incorporado al área insular por resección del mismo. A escala microrregional, la escasez de sitios arqueológicos y la baja densidad de artefactos sugiere que las islas de Choele Choel no constituyeron en momentos prehispánicos un lugar destacado como si lo fueron para las sociedades indígenas de los últimos siglos.
We present the results of the first archaeological studies conducted on the Choele Choel islands (Río Negro, Argentina), with special emphasis on the archaeological record recovered from the Fábrega site. In an excavation on a dune, lithic artifacts and human and faunal bone remains were recovered, compatible with a residential occupation. The results show that the assemblage is similar to that of other nearby sites and includes materials brought from the upper parts of the valley. Based on the materials and the study of satellite images, it is proposed that the site would have been an occupation inside a meander outside the island, later incorporated by resection. From a regional perspective, the scarcity of archaeological sites and artifacts in the insular sector leads us to propose that the Choele Choel islands did not play a prominent role in pre-Hispanic times as they were for the indigenous societies of historic times.
