The objective of this work is to present a characterization of the tehuelche groups during the contact period thatfollowed the occupation declared by the Argentine state of Southern Patagonia. It seeks to establish an overview of the moment prior to the introduction of sheep farming in the region (1859-1884). Contributionsfrom history andarcheology are considered, both in background and in the scope ofeach discipline. A flexible occupation ofspace by equestrian hunters is reported, registering two main areas of occupation (strait of Magellan and Shehuen or Chalía river). These areas were made up of different camps, inns and trails, connected to the interior of each area and on a regional scale. Finally, the border space and the place occupied by the tehuelche groups in the international game in the last decades of the 19th century are put into context.
