Criteria for the Identification of Formation Processes in Guanaco (Lama guanicoe) Bone Assemblages in Fluvial-Lacustrine Environments by Gutierrez, Maria Amelia, Kaufmann, Cristian Ariel

“…It is proposed that some of the skeletal parts, which belong to guanaco carcasses that were processed and exploited by hunter-gatherers in areas close to the site, were added to those from animals that died naturally. …”

Evaluating Intensity in the Processing of Guanaco (Lama Guanicoe) at the Lower Basin of the Colorado River (Argentina): Fragmentation Levels and Fracture Patterns Analysis by Stoessel, Luciana

“…Remains of ungulates (guanaco) have suffered, in these assemblages, a high degree of fragmentation probably caused during the processing of the carcasses. The presence of helical debris and shaft fragments indicates that fragmentation would respond to processing tasks for the consumption of marrow and possibly bone grease. …”

Modern Bone Distribution in the Pampas of Argentina: Taphonomic Implications for the Regional Archaeological Record by Scheifler, Nahuel Alberto, Massigoge, Agustina, Kaufmann, Cristian Ariel, Rafuse, Daniel Joseph, Gonzalez, Mariela Edith, Gutierrez, Maria Amelia, Alvarez, María Clara

“…In the shallow lakes and fluvial valleys, bones of large-sized vertebrates are predominant and accumulate mainly by natural death and discard of the carcasses by local farmers. The coast shows a more uniform representation of small, medium, and large-sized vertebrates, which is related to high biodiversity and good visibility of the bones deposited in this environment. …”

Global archaeological theory. Contextual voices and contemporary thoughts. by Gnecco, Cristóbal

“…Si consideramos que quince de los veinte artículos fueron escritos por arqueólogos suramericanos hay que empezar por señalar que este es un libro singular (y atrevido) porque por primera vez una editorial prestigiosa y de amplia circulación internacional publica (en inglés) un libro de teoría arqueológica dominado, por lo menos demográficamente, por intelectuales no metropolitanos y no anglo-parlantes. Párrafo extraído de la reseña a modo de resumen…”

Natural accumulation and distribution of guanaco bones in the southernmost tip of Tierra del Fuego (Argentina): taphonomic analysis and archaeological implications by Alunni, Daniela Verónica, Gutiérrez, María A., Zangrando, Atilio Francisco Javier

“…The guanaco assemblages consist of both disarticulated and articulated bones, most represented by limbs and heads (only two nearly complete carcasses were recorded). Natural processes such as marine abrasion largely affected the preservation of specimens, while weathering is a conspicuous effect observed on bones from the forest. …”

Taphonomy of bones remains from pellets of Coragyps atratus (black vulture) in the northwest of the argentinian Patagonia by Ballejo, Fernando, Fernández, Fernando, De Santis, Luciano J. M.

“…However, the studies focus on scavenger birds have been scarcely considered in Argentina, despite the fact that they play a fundamental role in the alteration and transportation of carcasses. A peculiar characteristic of Coragyps atratus (black vulture) is that it builds communal roosts near places where human activities are developed and it feeds on animals of varying size, which may interfere with the formation of archaeological sites. …”

Naturalistic taphonomic observations in the Hinojo-Las Tunas Shallow Lake System (Central Pampean Dune Field, Argentina) by Scheifler, Nahuel, Massigoge, Agustina, Álvarez, María Clara, Rodríguez, Juan, Recofsky, Marcos, Kaufmann, Cristian, González, Mariela, Gutiérrez, María

“…Taphonomic transects were carried out along the shoreline of Las Tunas Grandes and Laguna Chica shallow lakes, which allowed us to record the natural deposition of carcasses and bones belonging to a broad variety of vertebrate taxa of different sizes. …”

Beached penguins on the Atlantic Coast in the Pampas region of Argentina: Taphonomic analysis and implications for the archaeological record by Massigoge, Agustina, Rafuse, Daniel Joseph, Alvarez, María Clara, Gonzalez, Mariela Edith, Gutierrez, Maria Amelia, Kaufmann, Cristian Ariel, Scheifler, Nahuel Alberto

“…The penguin assemblage from the surveyed area, which results from beaching during seasonal migration, consists of disarticulated bones, articulated bones, and carcasses. In the skeletal representation, there is a strong predominance of limbs and shoulder girdle elements. …”
