We identified 301 funerary goods, with those individuals with natural mummification showing thehigher number and variety of objects (n = 184/2,3 objects per individual), followed by individuals with a sand cover (n = 39/2,1objects per individual) and finally those with artificial mummification (n = 23/0,6 objects per individual). In addition we found 55cultural records of objects in disturbed areas without association to a particular individual.The funerary objects correspond to: (1) clothing and body ornaments; (2) tools associated to the exploitation of marine resources:for hunting, fishing, and gathering; (3) tools associated to hunting of terrestrial resources; (4) miscellaneous material such asleather bags, and skins of camelids, birds and see mammals.Those objects associated to hunting activities are significantly more frequent than those associated to fishing and gathering ofresources. Women are associated to fishing tools while men are associated to hunting tools. This patterned distribution of funeraryobjects seems to reflect a social order linked to the existence of different sexual roles in the Chinchorro society. Finally, we discussgeneral aspects associated to the chronology of the site, exchange activities with Andean hunters, diet, subsistence, and origin ofarchaic populations %Z Late and Terminal Archaic, possible early bow
