The hunter-gatherer colonization phase of southern South America occurred during thePleistocene-Holocene transition (ca. 13,000-8000 RCYBP), an interval of dramatic climaticchange. This report discusses the paleoenvironmental records for this period (Table1) of three archaeological localities, Agua de la Cueva, Cerro La China, and Los Toldos,situated in different environmental settings. Climatic and ecological conditions duringhuman colonization a¡e inferred from sedimentological and palynological analyses performedat the sites.
