The focus of this paper is on the results recently achieved in both margins of the middleUruguay River. New data about spatial distribution of archaeological remains, lithic and potterytechnology, chronology and Quaternary landscape evolution has been generated throughfieldwork and various analysis. The main goal of these studies the generation and actualizationof knowledge about social and cultural evolution of the prehispanic people that inhabited thefluvial littorals of South America. Here we propose the middle Uruguay River as an importantsector for the circulation of people, materials, and ideas. The paleoambiental and paleoclimaticframework for this scenario is inferred from the results of stratigraphic, sedimentological,microbiological and chronological analysis in the fluvial sedimentary sequences developedduring late Holecene.
