Resumen:
The environment found by European Colonizers, usually characterized as "natural" or "pristine", was the result of 10,000 years of environmental evolution where human populations were a significant component. The archaeological record brings information in two main aspects: the human strategies within that paleoecoystem and knowledge on natural processes such as volcanism and flooding. Human ecology offers a diversity of theoretical backgrouns that propitiate the integration of this information. In the case of southern Mendoza, this perspective define news problems. The prehispanic history cannot be understood just as movements of populations or ideas, and even in those cases it would be required an explanation.
