Abstract
Archaeological studies in Southern Brazil indicate a long term adaptive relationship between hunter-gatherers and the Atlantic Forest Biome, Its presence since the Pleistocene-Holocene transition contributed to the initial settlement of this region. Throughout the Holocene, most of the captured vertebrates belong to forest habitats. The lithic industry features point to a stabilized technological pattern, suggesting a model of social organization characterized by a high degree of social interaction, regulated by strategies of frequent residential mobility in a large regional territory.
