Resumen
Descripción
Se presenta el estado de los conocimientos sobre los cambios ambientales ocurridos durante
el Holoceno Superior en el Noroeste Argentino, con un enfoque especial hacia los procesos
dominantes en áreas de estudio seleccionadas, las principales tendencias que se observan
en la morfodinámica durante el período bajo estudio y su relevancia para la arqueología.
Se escogieron tres áreas de estudio, ubicadas en la Puna de Jujuy, en las Sierras Subandinas
y en el Chaco. Los resultados obtenidos muestran que el paisaje ha sufrido cambios
morfodinámicos muy importantes, controlados tanto por procesos que obedecen a causas
naturales, como por factores antrópicos ligados al uso del territorio, tales como variación
de la cobertura vegetal (por uso ganadero, agrícola, incendios), manejo del recurso hídrico,
entre otros.
This paper shows the state of the knowledge about environmental changes that took place during the Late Holocene in Northwest Argentina, with a special focus on the dominant processes in the selected study areas, the main trends observed in the morphodynamics during this period and its relevance for archaeology. Three study areas were selected, located in the Puna, Sierras Subandinas and Chaco. The results show that the landscape experienced very important morphodynamic changes, produced both by natural processes and human factors related to land use, such as changes in land cover (for livestock breeding, agricultural uses, fires), water resource management, among others.
