this project proposes problems and hypotheses regarding heath state and disease in agropastoral societies that lived in two regions of Puna de Atacama during Late and Late-Inka periods: Antofagasta de la Sierra (Southern Puna, Argentina) and Jujuy麓s Puna Eastern Sector (Northern Puna, Argentina)...
We cross the Puna to arrive at Salar de Arizaro, the setting for the breathtaking lava pyramid of the Cono de Arita, rising like a tower in the biggest salt flat in Argentina, at nearly 2,000 square km. The drone video below was shot by us (sorry for not being great videography) ...

and northwest Argentina11; this ‘Chaco model’ implicates northerly winds. Widely documented wind erosion of the southern Altiplano–Puna Plateau (e.g., refs. 17,18,19,20,21) suggests that the loess deposits along the eastern flank of the Andes were largely sourced from the west and north...

which has yielded stimulating data on human occupations and paleoenvironmental conditions during the Pleistocene/Holocene boundary and continuously throughout the Holocene, including the very arid Middle Holocene -a time when the Atacama Desert to the west and the North Puna witnessed low intensity human...
The results show that almost 60% of the publications based directly on data from the Puna, the Altiplano, or the Atacama Desert with objectives related to planetary science or astrobiology do not include any local institutional partner (Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, and Peru). Indeed, and beyond ...
Paleoenvironmental information regarding the mid-Holocene in the Puna de Atacama generally shows extreme aridity and high temperatures ("Hypsithermal"). Moreover, the absence of human occupations in certain sectors of the region suggested a "Silencio Arqueológico", between 7500 and 5000 BP. ...
