Near the last millennium, an important change in cultural trajectories at Chiloe Island is marked by the appearance of horticultural and pottery traditions. Based on various lines of evidence, we can sustain that, for the Late Holocene, marine hunter-gatherers-fishermen from the northern Patagonian archipelago used and consumed wild and domesticated plants. The Tricolor archaeological site, located on the central Pacific coast of Chiloe, along with the various studies carried out regarding ceramic manufacture, organic use residues, together with a diverse set of radiocarbon dates (charcoals, organic residues, TL), are relevant to begin to fill the gaps in the archaeological record of the last centuries up to European contact. With this we contribute to the discussion about the subsistence processes, changes and cultural continuities that occurred in the area during the last centuries of pre-Hispanic human occupation.
