Findings of spoiled boga fish (Boops boops) are presented on neolithic concheros in Sweden. The distribution of fish sizes found indicates that there was a spawning stock in the North Sea during this period. Sea temperatures were higher than today. Vessel fishing indicates the use of nets or other f...

En este trabajo se presentan los primeros resultados de los análisis ictioarqueológicos realizados en la localidad arqueológica Bajo de la Quinta (BQ), en la costa norte del golfo San Matías. Las observaciones en el campo y los primeros estudios faunísticos en el área mostraron una gran proporción d...

The rionegrine coast of the San Matías Gulf is divided into two sectors (north and west), with different geological and geomorphological characteristics. These differences result in a differentiated availability of resources, which would have led to the different use of space by the hunters who occu...

This article aims to emphasise the presence of shells in archaeological sites, which provide us with a wealth of cultural information about human settlements, particularly in the Baja California concheros. In Lower California, they are located intermittently along their coasts, both in the Gulf of C...

In order to assess the marine reservoir effect (ERM) on shellfish on the north coast of the Gulf of San Matías (Patagonia, Argentina), ten valve-coal pairs from anthropic concheros located along that coast were counted by accelerator (AMS). The age differences obtained fluctuate between 205 and 358...

The small cave of Cubío Redondo (Cueva 793) is on a steep limestone slope, in the Matienzo valley, in the eastern part of the mountains of Cantabria. The two excavation campaigns, carried out in 1996 and 1997, have made it possible to document their occupation by groups of harvesting hunters, probab...

El registro arqueológico de la costa norte de Santa Cruz (Patagonia argentina) se caracteriza por la presencia de gran cantidad de acumulaciones de valvas de moluscos de origen antrópico, denominados comúnmente concheros. Estos han sido interpretados como el reflejo de una intensa ocupación de las p...

This work summarises the preliminary results of the analyses of malacological material from three archaeological sites along the Canal del Dique: Port Hormiga, Monsú and Leticia. The first two sites are associated with dates of the Formative Period, some 6000 years ago, and the last one is associate...

At the north coast of Santa Cruz, a large number of conchero-sites have been identified. These contexts have been interpreted as a product of the settlement of hunter populations that inhabited this coastal sector and made use of the resources available, mainly emoluscs and pinnipeds. Concheros repr...

After the end of the Tardiglaciar, when human settlement has spread high in the Cantabrian Cordillera and across the whole northern region of Atlantic Spain, the dense forests of the initial Holoceno seem to have caused a major change in human distribution, including at least the substantial abandon...

This work presents a systematisation of geo-referenced data obtained over 30 years of studies in the archaeological locality Punta Medanosa (Province of Santa Cruz, Patagonia Argentina). Based on the planning of the information generated at different times and with different objectives within the sa...

Summary: The command stick is an important element in a number of indigenous cultures in Mexico, such as the Chichimecas-Otomis represented by the Concheros dancers of the state of Querétaro. In this work, I look at the political performance (Linchentfel and Rouse) in delivering this symbolic elemen...
