The present paper discusses the Meseta's Late Prehistory from an alternative theoretical framework, focussing on the multiactive character of peasant economic rationality. From this point of view, recurrent interpretation of the dominance of pastoralist in prehistoric economies are discussed. In conclusion, the social evolution of this area is seen as an historical anomaly, in which a specific form of ecosystem management restrains the development of permanent social inequalities.
