Summary

Archaeological research at Cueva de las Manos, Río Pinturas, Santa Cruz, Argentina, has refined the understanding of rock art sequences proposed by Gradin in the 1970s. The study identifies five successive styles (A1 to A5) within hunting scenes, enabling clearer comparisons across sites and providing a more detailed stylistic framework for regional analysis. This approach enhances the interpretation of human settlement patterns and cultural evolution in the Pinturas River and Andean lakes region.
