Description: "Detailed descriptions of fieldwork, environment, stratigraphy, radiocarbon chronology, research design, organic preservation, wood assemblage, cordage, microtopography, modern plant use, archaeobotanical identifications, lithics, faunal remains, and activity patterning provide the most comprehensive evidence yet assembled in support of human occupation in South America contemporary with the earliest North American sites. Data are combined to infer diet, activities, land use, foraging strategy, medicinal knowledge, and other components of daily life"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
