Resumen:
Dryland archaeological sites are usually affected by erosion/accumulation processes that substantially alter their original features. Reconstructing the original positions and dimensions of archaeological sites requires the application of geoarchaeological techniques to create evolutionary regional models. In this paper we present several evolutionary models developed in Spain and Northwest Argentina linking geomorphological processes of slopes, valleys, and alluvial fans. Given that, in many cases, these processes are the result of climate changes, evolutionary reconstructive models are also important for paleoenvironmental reconstruction.
