Abstract
⺠We incorporate an experimental approach to study violence patterns in NE Patagonia. ⺠We analyzed a sample of human skulls (n = 986) in order to detect metal tools marks. ⺠We used swine skulls as proxies for human skulls and original swords. ⺠No differences were found between archaeological and experimental marks. ⺠No significant increases were registered until the Hispanic-indigenous contact.
