Patagonian Evolutionary Archaeology and Human Paleoecology: Commending the Legacy (Still in the Making) of Luis Alberto Borrero in the Interpretation of Hunter-Gatherer Studies of the Southern Cone
Part of: Society for American Archaeology 84th Annual Meeting, Albuquerque, NM (2019)
This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "Patagonian Evolutionary Archaeology and Human Paleoecology: Commending the Legacy (Still in the Making) of Luis Alberto Borrero in the Interpretation of Hunter-Gatherer Studies of the Southern Cone," at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.
There is no doubt of the immense theoretical, methodological, and regional contribution of Luis Alberto Borrero to the archaeology of the Southern Cone. His work in several areas has inspired colleagues and students and through their own work we can see the imprint he has made over the last decades. The wealth of his contributions includes the application of evolutionary theory, the analysis of ethnographic cases, his model of a continuous peopling, the development of a regional taphonomy, and several other useful constructs that have fashioned how we study the past in the Southern Cone. The paramount importance of his work on interpreting biogeography, human remains, technology and archaeofauna is evident in his own contributions and in those of others that consider such ideas important for their own research programs. This session honors his legacy by gathering contributions on a wide variety of topics from most areas where archaeology has been developed in the last corner of the globe to be settled. The papers will analyze published and unpublished information introducing the way how the research frameworks developed by Borrero or his specific ideas have molded the way of conducting research and/or interpreting data.
