Posible interacción humana en una lesión de Lestodon armatus de 33.000 años en Uruguay
This paper discusses an archaeological finding at Arroyo del Vizcaíno (Uruguay) (Fariña et al. 2025), where a deep conical perforation was identified in the calcaneus of a Lestodon armatus specimen, an extinct ground sloth. The 41 mm deep by 21 mm diameter lesion was analyzed using Computed Tomography scans, silicone casting and microscopic wear and residue analysis. The authors propose that this perforation may have been caused by a blunt object…
Meat Utility Index in Two Neotropical Deer ( Subulo gouazoubira and Ozotoceros bezoarticus ) with a Comparative Evaluation Across Cervidae
Economic utility indices are a methodological tool widely used in zooarchaeology to assess transport and consumption through the analysis of anatomical frequencies. In this work, we derived a meat utility index (MUI) for Ozotoceros bezoarticus and Subulo gouazoubira. Data were compared between both species, along with available data for S. gouazoubira, Hippocamelus bisulcus, Odocoileus virginianus, Rangifer tarandus, and Capreolus capreolus. Thre…
The Megafauna3D Dataset
This dataset consists of 3D digital models of fossilised remains from the Pleistocene megafauna of Uruguay, now publicly available for scientists, educators, and the general public. The fossils, housed in collections across Uruguay, were digitised through photogrammetry, structured light, and CT scanning. The dataset includes models of extinct species such as ground sloths, glyptodonts, mastodonts, and a sabre-toothed cat, which played significan…
Comparative Morphology of Postcranial Bones of Subulo gouazoubira and Ozotoceros bezoarticus
Two species of Neotropical deer currently inhabit Uruguay: the pampas deer ( Ozotoceros bezoarticus ) and the gray brocket deer ( Subulo gouazoubira ). Both have medium‐sized body ranges and similar postcranial osteology. This similarity complicates their taxonomic assignment in fragmentary paleontological and zooarcheological assemblages in Uruguay and other regions of South America. Accurate identification of these deer remains in archeological…
Hard Facts in an Imperfect Site
With the excuse of writing a critique to Domínguez-Rodrigo et al. (2021, duly replied here: Domínguez-Rodrigo & Baquedano, 2022), Holcomb et al. (this volume) intend to deny the proposal that the Arroyo del Vizcaíno (AdV, Fariña et al. 2014) is a site with evidence of human presence in South America before the LGM. Among the flaws of their critique, it must be mentioned that they decide to utterly ignore a few lines of evidence that sustain the q…
