Resumen:
In Northwestern Patagonia, the obsidian was used during the entire Holocene, and its importance increased with time. Recent field work allowed the discovery of a new obsidian source located in the Rio Grande river, which was called ?Coche Quemado? (CQ). The results indicate that the CQ source has a different geochemical signal than all other sources in the region. Its use is spatially restricted to piedmont and, to a lesser extent, to the plains. Chronologically, CQ was exploited in the middle and late Holocene, and its use accounts for a range of spatial distribution between 150 and 200 km.
