英文摘要	The Fremont provide an important case study to examine the resilience of ancient farmers to climatic downturns, because they lived at the far northern margin of intensive maize agriculture in the American West, where the constraints on maize production are made abundantly clear. Using a tree-ring and simulation-based reconstruction of average annual precipitation and maize growing degree days, along with cost-distance to perennial streams, we model spatial variability in Fremont site density in the eastern Great Basin. The results of our analysis have implications for defining the ecological envelope in which farming is a viable strategy across this arid region and can be used to predict where and why maize farming strategies might evolve and eventually collapse as climate changes over time. Los Fremont constituyen un importante caso de estudio para examinar la resiliencia de las comunidades agr & iacute;colas del pasado frente a las crisis clim & aacute;ticas, ya que habitaron en el l & iacute;mite septentrional de la agricultura intensiva de ma & iacute;z en el Oeste Americano, donde las limitaciones a la producci & oacute;n de ma & iacute;z se hacen evidentes. A partir de la reconstrucci & oacute;n, basada en anillos de & aacute;rboles y simulaciones, de la precipitaci & oacute;n media anual y la suma t & eacute;rmica del ma & iacute;z, junto con el coste-distancia a arroyos perennes, modelamos la variabilidad espacial en la densidad de yacimientos Fremont en el este de la Gran Cuenca. Los resultados de nuestros an & aacute;lisis tienen implicaciones para la definici & oacute;n del rango ecol & oacute;gico en el que el cultivo es una estrategia viable en esta regi & oacute;n & aacute;rida, y pueden ser utilizados para predecir d & oacute;nde y por qu & eacute; las estrategias de cultivo de ma & iacute;z podr & iacute;an evolucionar y eventualmente colapsar a medida que el clima cambia con el tiempo.
