Resumen
Descripción
El sector sur del Área Ecotonal Húmedo Seca Pampeana (AEHSP), dominado por el Sistema Serrano de Ventania y su llanura adyacente, presenta características ecológicas transicionales entre la pampa húmeda y seca, y recursos atractivos para las poblaciones humanas. La dinámica poblacional del Holoceno Tardío en el área sufrió un alto impacto por procesos tales como la araucanización de las pampas y la llegada de poblaciones europeas a partir del Siglo XVI, que se agudizó en el Siglo XIX cuando las relaciones de la población indígena con la hispano-criolla comenzaron a ser cada vez más frecuentes. Dentro del conjunto de evidencias arqueológi-cas que han sido asignadas al Período de contacto hispano-indígena, y que se encuentran documentadas para el sector sur del AEHSP, se han identificado áreas formales de entierro, una de las cuales ha sido ubicada cronológicamente a fines del siglo XVIII, en un contexto con fauna introducida y materiales de tecnología indígena y exótica de alto valor simbólico. Considerando este conjunto de información procedente de la evidencia material recuperada, especialmente parte del con- junto ergológico metálico presente en el sitio Gascón 1, así como el análisis de los datos aportados por las fuentes escritas disponibles para el área de estudio, se establecen comparaciones regionales y extrarregionales para el período abordado.
The southern sector of Area Ecotonal Húmedo Seco Pampeana (AEHSP) presents ecological characteristics that are transitional between wet and dry pampas, and attractive resources for human populations, and the Ventania´s hills and its adjacent plain dominate the landscape. The population dynamics of the late Holocene suf-fered a high impact by processes such as the araucanizacion of the pampas and the arrival of European populations from the 16th century, which is acute in the nine-teenth century when the relations of the indigenous population with the hispanic-creole begin to be increasingly frequent. Within the set of archaeological evidences which have been assigned to the hispanic-indigenous contact period, and that are documented for the southern sector of the AEHSP, have been identified formal areas of burial, one of which has been placed chronologically at the end of the 18th century, in a context with materials of indigenous and exotic technology of high symbolic value and introduced fauna. Whereas this set of information from the material evidence recovered, especially part of the metallic elements present at the Gascon 1 site, as well as the analysis of data provided by the written sources avail-able for the study area, establish regional and extra-regional comparisons for the period addressed.
