Resumen:
The archaeological models and hypothesis derived to explain the local evolution of hunter-gatherer populations in the southeastern Pampas of Argentina assumed that it was a rather continuous and transformative process. To a large extent, this view can be considered as an enduring legacy of early processual archaeology, in which biocultural evolution was mainly envisioned as a process of internal, adaptative adjustment. Based on recent developments in metapopulation biology and evolutionary geography, and with analysis of archaeological and bioarchaeological evidence, we propose an alternative view. In this paper we present and discuss the evidence -at both regional and supra-regional scale- supporting this claim (e.g., temporal distribution of calibrated 14C-ages and human craniofacial morphology), exploring their implications for the archaeological study of human peopling of the Pampas.
