Piedra Museo, a Place and a history of the peopling of Patagonia

Abstract

This book presents the archaeological and paleo-environmental information of the Piedra Museo locality (Santa Cruz, Argentina), produced by the field and laboratory work with our research team at the La Plata Museum (Universidad Nacional de La Plata, La Plata, Argentina), which is a multidisciplinary way and during three decades has made significant progress in various aspects of the human past, the environment, and the management of cultural assets. All this allows us to sketch the occupational history of hunter-gatherers who explored and inhabited Southern Patagonia since the Pleistocene-Holocene transition.
