The archaeofauna of archaeological site Peñas de la Cruz 1.1 (PCz1.1) (7910-7270 BP), in the Argentinean Puna, is analyzed. The sample is dominated by camelids, including both vicuña and, to a lesser extent, guanaco. Camelid family groups would have been targeted. About 30% of artiodactyl specimens bear anthropic modifications, suggesting intensive exploitation.
