It is of global anthropological and archaeological interest, dealing as it does with an archipelago characterised by a maze of islands, fiords, channels, volcanoes and continental glaciers, in an area which is still very sparsely inhabited with only scattered settlements. It was one of the last parts of the continent to be populated by man, with the arrival of marine hunter-gatherer-fishers. The arrival of human beings in this area, and their subsistence strategies in varied environments, constitute a new example of man's ability to adapt over the course of his history. It is also of interest to document how humans overcome some biogeographical barriers to occupy territories, and how other kinds of barrier restrict movement and access to other regions, leaving certain human groups isolated. Two hunter-gatherer traditions, one marine and one pedestrian, with very different cultural development processes, coexisted in this part of Patagonia separated by less than 100 km of mountains, volcanoes and glaciers. There is no evidence of contact between them over their whole time sequence; on the contrary, the archaeological and bioanthropological evidence indicates two independent axes of movement: one used by canoe groups along the Pacific coast and the other by pedestrian groups in the interior of the continent east of the Andes. 410 0$aThe Latin American Studies Book Series,$x2366-343X 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aCultural geography 606 $aArchaeology 606 $aGeography 606 $aLatin America$xHistory 606 $aEmigration and immigration 606 $aSocial and Cultural Geography 606 $aArchaeology 606 $aRegional Geography 606 $aLatin American History 606 $aHuman Migration 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 0$aCultural geography. 615 0$aArchaeology. 615 0$aGeography. 615 0$aLatin America$xHistory. 615 0$aEmigration and immigration. 615 14$aSocial and Cultural Geography. 615 24$aArchaeology. 615 24$aRegional Geography. 615 24$aLatin American History. 615 24$aHuman Migration. 676 $a982.7 700 $aReyes$b Omar$01741114 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910863186703321 996 $aThe Settlement of the Chonos Archipelago, Western Patagonia, Chile$94167101 997 $aUNINA
