Morphometric Analysis of Camelid Remains from the Alero Deodoro Roca (ADR) Site (Córdoba, Argentina). An Attempt to Characterise Body‐Size Variability in Sierras Pampeanas Australes Region

Abstract: This paper focuses in the morphometric analyses of Lama guanicoe remains recovered from the hunter–gatherer archaeological site Alero Deodoro Roca, located at Sierras Pampeanas Australes region (Córdoba Argentina), an area that has little information on the body‐size variability of these artiodactyls. Because of the sparse osteometric data in the region, we focused on determining inter‐intraspecific differentiation of wild camelids through corroborated osteometric techniques and multivariate statistical analys… Show more

“…This process might have been associated with environmental pressures, such as climate change, demographic increases in population sizes, and development of new social organizations, probably with the emergence of a more hierarchical structure [ 61 ]. Regional archaeofaunal data suggest that despite the environmental and population changes, guanaco hunting remained an important economic activity [ 13 – 16 ].…”

“…A previous work in the regional characterization of archaeological camelids presented similar results. Despite the size variability, most specimens tended to be medium or large size [ 13 , 16 ]. Finally, mitochondrial DNA data suggest the existence of a guanaco metapopulation that replaced the extinct Patagonian guanacos at ca .…”
