Abstract

Charcoal analysis of seven sambaquis from the southeastern Brazilian coast allowed palaeoenvironment reconstruction as well as various palaeoethnological considerations on wood use and on the fishers-gatherershunters’ diet. Restinga, dry forest, mangrove and Atlantic Forest ecosystems were present. Environmental stability has certainly been a main factor in the maintenance of the fishers-gatherers-hunters sociocultural system.
