Cerro Casa de Piedra 7: Wood, animals, and occupation

No securely recorded ancient self-designation is established for this archaeological context.

A shelter sequence preserves animal activity and human work alongside unusually informative wood. Sample comparison prevents a simple story in which all surviving animals and artifacts belong to one occupation.

Shelter sequence and plant-work context Pleistocene–Holocene transition and Holocene episodes; dated samples differ Radiocarbon series, animal remains, wooden artifacts and growth-ring or bark observations. Gobernador Gregores public town orientation, Santa Cruz, Argentina. Approximate public orientation only, never a territorial, ethnic, linguistic, political, cultural or sovereignty boundary. Not a burial, ancestral-remains, restricted rock-art, sacred-site or private deposit location; no access, excavation or collecting permission is implied.
Resumen

Paisajes, comunidades y evidencias

Paisajes y conexiones regionales

The western Santa Cruz landscape connects forest margins and highland resources; the public point is distant from the protected shelter.

Organización política y escala comunitaria

The evidence concerns selected activities, deposits and local community scale, not one centralized government, capital, bounded people or complete account of authority. Tools, mounds, paintings and preservation alone cannot establish political organization.

Encuentros coloniales, patrimonio vivo y recepción moderna

Modern research and heritage care differ from ancient occupation. Living Indigenous communities and custodians are not vanished archaeological classifications; this profile neither establishes nor denies automatic continuity, recognition or descent. Cited institutions have not endorsed this atlas.

Association Different events share deposits

The early-occupation account distinguishes dates from extinct-animal dung and a consumed camelid bone.

Secuencia histórica

Una cronología breve y documentada

Estos hitos sirven de orientación y no constituyen una historia completa.

  1. Animal activity and human visits

    The research records alternating events, not a demonstrated simultaneous encounter.

  2. Further shelter use

    Additional dates contribute to understanding later occupations.

  3. Sample relationships checked

    The studies revisit associations rather than treating sediment co-occurrence as proof.

  4. Wood studied seasonally

    The institutional resource describes analysis of wooden material from the locality.

Prefer living community institutions, heritage authorities, accountable archaeological projects, original studies and institutional repositories. Repository abstracts and research notices are identified as such, not substituted for complete excavation records. Attribute sample types, dates, units and changing interpretations. Distinguish tentative heritage proposals from inscriptions and modern restitution work from ancient occupation.
