Abstract

Researchers in the High Andes in northern Chile report the study of a fine cave sequence, supported by 19 radiocarbon dates The initial occupation at c 11 500 cal BP represents the earliest human occupation known at this altitude The toolkit suggests a hunting (logistical) camp used to take advantage of the animals gathering in the rich wetland of the neighbourhood.
