Human occupation of the north Patagonian coast (San Matias Gulf): Current perspectives
The North Atlantic Patagonian Coast (San Matías Gulf [SMG], Río Negro, Argentina) is known for its archaeological richness covering some 380 km of the littoral, (Figure 1). This region has evidence for early human adaptation to marine resource exploitation. This was the focus of early studies undert...
