Resumen:
The record of small and middle sized mammals -particularly rodents, armadillos, fishes and birds- in archaeofaunal contexts of different areas of Pampean Region (Argentina) with chronologies from Early to Late Holocene are herein discussed. Their potential as economic resource exploited by hunter gatherers and the incidence in the formation processes are considered as well. The main goal is to analyze the role of the small taxa in the cultural and environmental context, comparing at spatial and chronological level; likewise, hypotheses on economic strategies about the use in the human diet and other derived products (leathers, feathers, bones) are also studied.
