Resumen:
Diversity in environmental conditions has a variable effect on technological strategies employed by hunter-gatherers worldwide. Here we assess this pattern within Fuego-Patagonia, which comprises several ecological areas including forest, steppe, and maritime coast. This study explores the relationship between environmental variables and lithic assemblages structure, richness, and composition by applying multivariate statistical analysis (constrained ordination). Artifactual samples analyzed are late Holocene and were recovered in Patagonia between 50º and 53º S. This research contributes to regional and worldwide discussions about the role of environmental factors and the spatial scale of technological diversity.
