Abstract

This review considers important themes concerning the peopling of South America that have been analyzed in the various articles in this volume. The identification of the oldest lithic tools, the criteria of human association with extinct faunas and the selection of analytical units used to describe the process of peopling are the main themes. Paleoenvironmental issues and its relevance to understand the process of human colonization are also considered.
