Lithic taphonomy in desert environments: Contributions from Fuego-Patagonia (Southern South America)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2016-11)
This paper focuses on the contributions of taphonomic approaches to the study of lithic assemblages. Based on actualistic and archaeological case studies from Fuego-Patagonia (South America), here I summarize some of the ...
Plant–arthropod interactions in gymnosperm leaves from the Early Permian of Patagonia, Argentina
(Elsevier Masson, 2014-03)
Evidence of plant–arthropod interactions in three orders of gymnosperms is documented in at least five localities from Lower Permian strata of the Río Genoa Formation (Patagonia, Argentina). Arthropod damages were identified ...

(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2013-08)
Spatial and temporal variations in evidence for human occupation of Argentinian south Patagonia closely resemble changes in past vegetation reconstructed from pollen records. The Antarctic Cold Reversal was cold and dry ...
