Resumen:
Models and methodology generated and applied at different parts of the world can be useful for researchers working in other areas. In this paper, ethnoarchaeological information and optimization models are applied in order to understand the technological organization of hunter-gatherers living at the north and south of Santa Cruz river (Patagonia, Argentina) from ca. 9700 to 1000 years B.P. In order to do this, a regional methodology for recording lithic raw material distribution and availability in secondary procurement sources was developed and applied. The results obtained were useful at different spatial scales of analysis and have generated new questions that will guide future research.
