This paper examines the development of fishing strategies by terrestrial hunter-gatherers in northern Tierra del Fuego between 5000 BP and recent times. To do so, archaeological data (technology and fish bones) and ethnographic sources related to fishing practice are assessed. Analysis of this evidence reveals different moments in which the importance of fishing increases as well as some variability in the modes of exploitation. The study also detects the presence of specialized fishing camps dated to around 2300 BP and later times, their position coherent with other marine and terrestrial resources. The paper discusses the presence of fishing corrals in the northern coast of Tierra del Fuego and highlights the permanence and diffusion of technological traditions through time and space in the broad area comprised by the northern and southern archipelagos.
