the experimental butchering of coypu Myocastor Coypus implications for the analysis of the archaeofaunal record
Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports, 2020Co-Authors: Paula EscosteguyAbstract:Abstract Coypu (Myocastor Coypus) is a medium-small sized rodent which was exploited during the Late Holocene in the Humid Pampas and other regions of southern South America. Therefore, this paper aims to broaden our knowledge about archaeofaunal assemblages using data collected from five events of experimental butchery. These events were carried out by nutrieros (coypu hunters) and hunters from Buenos Aires province (Argentina) and were directed towards the extraction of some consumable resources from the carcass: hide and meat. Butchers used experimental flakes and tools made from ortoquartzite of the Sierras Bayas Group. The butchering process involved different tasks on the carcasses such as skinning, evisceration, disarticulation, and cutting into small pieces. We controlled the time involved in each experimental event and registered the weights of different byproducts. Resulting cut marks and fractures located on cranial and postcranial bones were associated with skinning, dismemberment, and segmentation for cooking. From this kind of actualistic study, we emphasized the significance of butcher’s skill to process small mammals and its consequences as resulting marks. In addition, we gathered information about the potential of exploitation of the prey in the present. Moreover, our study supports some interpretations made upon the archaeological record, questions others and alerts about equifinality.

Myocastor Coypus (“COIPO”, RODENTIA, MAMMALIA) COMO RECURSO EN LOS HUMEDALES DE LA PAMPA BOANERENSE: PATRONES DE EXPLOTACIÓN/Myocastor Coypus (“coipo”, Rodentia, Mammalia) as an archaeological resource in the wetlands of Buenos Aires Pampas: exploita
2012Co-Authors: Paula Escosteguy, Mónica Salemme, María Isabel GonzálezAbstract:Myocastor Coypus es una de las especies mas abundantes en los humedales de la region pampeana, particularmente en las cuencas de los rios Salado y Parana. Distintas lineas de evidencia permiten sostener que fue un recurso ampliamente aprovechado siendo central en las estrategias economicas de los cazadores-recolectores-pescadores durante el Holoceno tardio. Se presentan los resultados obtenidos del analisis de restos arqueofaunisticos de esta presa mediano-pequena, a partir de: analisis cuantitativos, estimacion de clases de edad, analisis de huellas, termoalteraciones y fracturas. El objetivo es analizar los patrones de explotacion del coipo utilizando informacion proveniente de los sitios de la localidad La Guillerma (LG1, LG4 y LG5) y San Ramon 7 (SR7) ubicados en el curso inferior del rio Salado y del sitio Rio Lujan (RL) y la localidad Canada Honda (CH) localizados en el NE bonaerense. Los resultados permiten sostener que la presion de captura se dio sobre presas adultas, que ingresaron completas a los sitios. Las huellas evidencian la ejecucion de una serie de acciones para su aprovechamiento (cuereo, desarticulacion y descarne). Abstract Myocastor Coypus is one of the most abundant species found in archaeological sites in the Pampean Region wetlands, especially in the Salado and Parana river basins. On the basis of different lines of evidence, it may be suggested that this animal was an extensively exploited resource, proving to be central in the strategies of hunter-gatherer-fishers that inhabited these regions during the Late Holocene. In this study, data obtained from archaeofaunal analysis are described: quantitative, age-class and butchering evidence analysis (cut marks, burning features and fracture patterns). We aim at analyzing the exploitation patterns of coypu using data found in La Guillerma (LG1, LG4 and LG5) and San Ramon 7 (SR7), pertaining to the lower Rio Salado basin, and in Rio Lujan (RL) and Canada Honda (CH) situated in the northeastern province of Buenos Aires. Results show that adult prey capture was practised, where the entire animal bodies had been introduced in the sites. Cut marks also evidence a series of tasks associated to exploitation (skinning, disarticulation and defleshing).

parasitismo por balantidium coli em nutria Myocastor Coypus no municipio de santa maria rs brasil
Estudos de Biologia, 2007Co-Authors: Aleksandro Schafer Da Silva, Regis Adriel Zanette, Silvia Gonzalez MonteiroAbstract:Nutria (Myocastor Coypus: Rodentia; Myocastoridae) e um roedor de natureza herbivora natural da regiao sul da America Latina. A contaminacao por protozoarios gastrintestinais em vertebrados pode ocorrer atraves da ingestao de cistos ou oocistos esporulados, os quais podem estar presentes nas fezes, pastagens, agua e nos alimentos. O Balantidium e um protozoario ciliado que tem os suinos como hospedeiro natural, porem tambem e relatado em outros animais. Este estudo teve o objetivo de relatar o parasitismo por Balantidium coli em nutria no Brasil. Foram colhidas e analisadas fezes de duas nutrias, femeas, com tres meses de idade provenientes de um criadouro conservacionista do municipio de Santa Maria, RS. As amostras foram mantidas resfriadas e processadas pelo metodo de centrifugo flutuacao com sulfato de zinco. Observou-se no exame parasitologico de fezes uma infeccao moderada por cistos de B. coli nos animais, o que leva a concluir que M. Coypus e hospedeiro desse protozoario. Este estudo e o primeiro registro de parasitismo em nutria no Brasil, possivelmente por causa da restricao de pesquisas envolvendo fauna silvestre.

LA RECURRENCIA DEL COIPO (Myocastor Coypus) EN LOS REGISTROS ARQUEOFAUNÍSTICOS DE LA CUENCA INFERIOR DEL RÍO PARANÁ (ARGENTINA) - The recurrence of the coypu (nutria) (Myocastor Coypus) in the archaeofaunal record from the lower basin of the Paraná River (Argentina)
Dr. Pascual Izquierdo-Egea, 2012Co-Authors: M.ª Belén Colasurdo, Julieta SartoriAbstract:En los registros arqueológicos de la cuenca inferior del río Paraná, hay un taxón que se encuentra siempre presente: el coipo (Myocastor Coypus). Es por tal motivo que en este trabajo se realiza un análisis de la recurrencia de esta presa que se caracteriza por habitar en ambientes fluviales y que, dado su fácil captura y la posibilidad de aprovechar su piel, se estima que ha sido un recurso altamente explotado por los grupos cazadores-recolectores en el pasado. Para establecer el tipo de explotación de este recurso se llevó a cabo un análisis cuantitativo (NISP y NMI) y cualitativo (modificaciones de las superficies óseas) de los especímenes. Asimismo, con el objeto de evaluar la variabilidad de cada registro se realizó una comparación entre las propiedades que presentó cada conjunto para establecer las similitudes/diferencias entre los mismos. ENGLISH: In the archaeological record of the lower basin of the Paraná river, Myocastor Coypus has been always present. For this reason in this paper we analyze the recurrence of this prey characterized as living in river ecosystems, and, because of its ease of hunting and the possibility of multiple uses of its fur, we estimate that this species was a resource highly exploited by hunter-gatherers in the past. Quantitative (NISP and MNI) and qualitative (modification of the bone surface) analyses of the recovered samples have been done in order to determine how M. Coypus might have been exploited in the past. In order to evaluate the variability of the record, we compare samples from different sites in order to establish the similarities and/or differences among them

explotacion de Myocastor Coypus en el extremo meridional de la cuenca del plata durante el holoceno tardio
Revista de Arqueologia, 2011Co-Authors: Alejandro Acosta, Julieta SartoriAbstract:The aim of this paper is to analyze different aspects linked to Myocastor Coypus (coipo) exploitation on hunter-gatherer societies that inhabited the southern portion of the Del Plata basin during the Late Holocene. For that porpoise, we considered the main properties of this specie as faunal resource and analyzed the M. Coypus archaeofaunal record of four archaeological sites. We measured different aspects related with bone assemblage integrity and behaviors linked to the acquirement, processing and consumption of this rodent. Finally, we stated the economic relevance of coipus in theregional level, in the frame of the strategies and the faunal resources exploitation of those human groups that inhabited the study area.
