英文摘要	This paper presents the results of an isotopic study of delta C-13 and delta N-15 values for bone collagen from 209 modern faunas from central-western Argentina. The samples come from two ecologically distinct areas: the Monte and Patagonian Deserts. The results confirm high intra- and inter-taxonomic variation in both isotopes. Previous studies of camelids, rodents and ostrich eggshells in this region showed a clear relation between animal delta C-13 and delta N-15 values, altitude, and the percentage of C-3 and C-4 plants. This pattern was not fully met among the species considered in this paper. No statistical differences were seen between delta C-13 values from Monte and Patagonian Deserts, although differences in delta N-15 were found. When samples from saltmarsh contexts were considered separately, differences among delta N-15 isotopic values become more pronounced, pointing to a relation between delta N-15 isotopic signatures and soil salinity. Archaeological human diet reconstruction based on isotopic data needs to pay attention to this significant variation in resources isotopic patterns in order to be used as a reliable dietary indicator.
