Se presenta el an a lisis de un dep o sito de desechos asociados a la alimentaci o n en Agua Amarga (departamento de Tupungato, en el Centro Oeste de la provincia de Mendoza). Agua Amarga es un sitio residencial de actividades m u ltiples ubicado en el piedemonte del Valle de Uco, a 1000 msnm. Los fechados obtenidos sobre cer a mica y restos vegetales del contexto lo ubican en el per i odo tard i o y de dominaci o n incaica regional. El prop o sito del trabajo es estudiar estrategias de procesamiento, consumo y descarte de alimentos que asimismo contribuyan a la discusi o n sobre las estrategias de subsistencia prehisp a nicas en el Norte y Centro de Mendoza. Se aplican m e todos y t e cnicas espec i ficos para la identificaci o n y el an a lisis de los restos, y se proponen hip o tesis alternativas sobre dicho contexto. Los materiales recuperados, la mayor i a de ellos termoalterados y muy fragmentados, incluyen macrorrestos arqueobot a nicos (principalmente Zea mays y Phaseulus vulgaris), restos o seos (algunos elementos identificados como Lama sp.), fragmentos de distintos recipientes cer a micos y de artefactos de molienda.  Finalmente, se discuten pr a cticas asociadas con la alimentaci o n y la subsistencia, con especial referencia a la producci o n y consumo de ma i z en el a rea. Palabras clave: alimentaci o n, subsistencia, ma i z, Mendoza Abstract We present the study of a refuse deposit associated with feeding activities in the archaeological site Agua Amarga (Tupungato department, Middle West of Mendoza province). This is a residencial site of multiple activities located in the foothill in Valle de Uco, to 1000 masl. We dated ceramics and vegetal remains that locate the context in the late period and during regional inca domination. Our goal is to study strategies of processing, consumption and discarding of foods that also contribute in the discussion on the prehispanic strategies of subsistence in the North and Center of Mendoza province. In this paper we applied specific methods and techniques for the identification and the analysis of the remains, and we propose alternative hypotheses on this context. Materials recovered, majority of them burnt and very fragmented, include macro archaebotanical remains (mainly Zea mays and Phaseulus vulgaris), bone remains (some elements identified as Lama sp.), fragments of different ceramic containers and grinding stones. Finally, we discuss practices associated with food and subsistence, especially in terms of production and consumption of maize in the area. Keywords: feeding, subsistence, maize, Mendoza
