Resumen
BARBOZA, María Carolina. Zooarchaeological study of faunal remains from Paso del Tala site (Goya, Corrientes, Argentina). Rev. Mus. Antropol. [online]. 2014, vol.7, n.2, pp.00-00. ISSN 1852-060X.
This paper presents the analysis of faunal assemblages from Paso del Tala site (Goya, Corrientes, Argentina). This provides new information about hunter-gatherer-fisher occupations in Middle Parana islands during the Late Holocene (356 ± 41 years BP). Remains were identified with regard to anatomy and taxonomy. The focus of the analysis was to differentiate anthropic modification and the action of other agents or taphonomic processes. As a result, the importance of fluvial resources was inferred. Among the taxa that have been identified, fishes, mammals and rodents (specially, Hydrochoerushydrochaeris) are the most abundant. Faunal remains have been found along with substantial amounts of pottery fragments, charcoal and lithic materials.
