英文摘要	Cueva Galpon is located in the Sierra Colorada or Paileman, close to the eastern edge of the Somuncura plateau. Radiocarbon dates situate the archaeological deposit within the Late Holocene, thus the assemblage provides a relevant record for inferring environmental change in the montane desert during the last 3,000 years. For this article, micromammalian bone accumulations from the archaeological sequence (NISP = 4.594 and MNI = 566) were studied. Preserved owl pellets and skeletal specimens with light digestive corrosion, suggest that the micromammal remains were mainly deposited by strigiform birds. Two marsupials, seven sigmodontines, and at least four caviomorph species were recorded. Two of them -Lestodelphys halli and Tympanoctomys kirchnerorum- are now no longer present in the area. The taxonomic composition of the studied sample suggests an ecotonal environment between the Patagonian steppe and montane desert. It is possible that at the time, temperatures would have been lower and precipitation slightly higher than at present. However, the lack of faunal elements typical of the Somuncura plateau, such as abrotrichines or Euneomys petersoni, indicates that Late Holocene environmental fluctuations were not of sufficient magnitude to cause significant faunal changes.
