TL;DR: The exact timing, route, and process of the initial peopling of the Americas remains uncertain despite much research as discussed by the authors, which is constrained by the lack of suitable calibration points and low genetic diversity of Native Americans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late Quaternary hydrological and ecological changes in the hyperarid core of the northern Atacama Desert (~ 21°S)

TL;DR: In this paper, the response of low-elevation desert ecological and hydrological systems to late Quaternary climate variability has been evaluated in the Atacama Desert.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emergence of social complexity among coastal hunter-gatherers in the Atacama Desert of northern Chile

TL;DR: Empirical and theoretical evidence is provided that artificial mummification appeared during a period of increased coastal freshwater availability and marine productivity, which caused an increase in human population size and accelerated the emergence of cultural innovations, as predicted by recent models of cultural and technological evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late Pleistocene human occupation of the hyperarid core in the Atacama Desert, northern Chile

TL;DR: The Atacama Desert was not a barrier to early American settlement and dispersal and provides new clues for understanding the cultural complexity and diversity of the peopling of South America during the Last Glacial-interglacial transition as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
External auditory exostosis in prehistoric Chilean populations: a test of the cold water hypothesis.
TL;DR: According to expectations, with the advent of agriculture, the coastal Arican populations increased their ocean harvests, rather than decreased them, to gain a surplus in order to trade with nonmaritime groups.
