Abstract
The interdisciplinary team of authors searched for, located, and excavated a Paleo-Indian site, Quebrada Santa Julia, along the Pacific Coast of Chile that dates to 13,000 BP. Other sites were found as part of a program to identify Pleistocene lacustrine environments where the first colonizing populations might have settled or exploited natural resources.
