Resumen
Cueva Zoro es un sitio arqueológico excavado recientemente en el sector centro oriental del sistema serrano de Tandilia, Buenos Aires, Argentina. Se trata de un reparo rocoso ubicado en el extremo septentrional de Sierra Larga norte. Allí fueron identificadas ocupaciones humanas ocurridas hacia el final del Pleistoceno y el inicio del Holoceno. En este trabajo se presenta la descripción del sitio, sus características espaciales y contextuales y los resultados obtenidos a partir de los diferentes análisis realizados. Entre estos se incluyen análisis tecnomorfológicos del conjunto lítico, de procedencia de materias primas líticas y de sustancias adheridas a las superficies de los objetos mediante cromatografía gaseosa; además de análisis espaciales mediante el uso de Sistemas de Información Geográfica. A partir de la información presentada, se define un lugar ocupado en forma efímera por lo pobladores tempranos del ámbito serrano de Tandilia y se discuten aspectos tales como las posibles relaciones con grupos y/o espacios distantes a partir de la identificación de materias primas alóctonas y los recursos orgánicos aprovechados por los pobladores tempranos del área, que habrían incluido animales de agua dulce.
Cueva Zoro is an archaeological site recently excavated in the central-east portion of Tandilia range, Buenos Aires province, Argentina. The site is a rock shelter located on the north end of the northern section of Sierra Larga. Different human occupations during the final Pleistocene and early Holocene were identified. In this paper the archaeological site and its contextual and spatial characteristics are described. The results of different analyses are presented, including technomorphological analysis of the lithic assemblage, lithic raw material provenience and quantification, and gas chromatography analysis applied to organic substances adhering to the surface of lithic objects. In addition, spatial studies based on Geographic Information Systems are also described. Finally, Cueva Zoro site is presented as a place ephemerally occupied by early settlers of the Tandilia range. Aspects of the human occupations are also discussed, such as long distance relationships--on the basis of the identification of allochthonous lithic raw materials--and organic resources used by early inhabitants of the area that may have included aquatic animals.
