Sequence of Lithic Production at the Site of Mesada del Agua Salada, Caspinchango, Yocavil Valley

Abstract

En este trabajo se analiza la secuencia de producción de la tecnología lítica en el sitio denominado Mesada del Agua Salada, situado en el Valle de Yocavil, Catamarca. Este sitio se halla conformado por dos recintos enclavados en la falda del Aconquija, uno de ellos que corresponde cronológicamente al primer milenio d.C., mientras que el segundo corresponde al Período Tardío. En ambos recintos se registraron en forma predominante evidencias de actividades de manufactura (talla y regularización de filos) y posiblemente uso. En menor medida se registraron evidencias de extracción y reactivación de instrumentos. En líneas generales, los instrumentos del sitio Mesada del Agua Salada registran un bajo grado de talla, siendo la obsidiana la materia prima que muestra un mayor esfuerzo tecnológico. Destacamos la continuidad en el consumo de las mismas variedades de obsidianas y la convergencia en las mismas opciones tecnológicas desde el Período Formativo hasta el Tardío en el sur del Valle de Yocavil.

In this paper we analyze the production sequence of lithic technology at the site called «Mesada del Agua Salada», located in the Yocavil Valley, Catamarca. This site is made up of two rooms nestled in the foothills of Aconquija, one of which corresponds chronologically to the first millennium AD, while the second corresponds to the Later Period. Evidences of manufacturing activities (formatization and regularization of edges) and possibly use are predominantly recorded. Evidences of extraction and reactivation of instruments are identified in lesser extent. In general, the instruments of «Mesada del Agua Salada» show a low degree of formatization, being obsidian the raw material which demonstrates a greater technological effort. We emphasize the continuity in the use of the same varieties of obsidian and the convergence in the same technological options from the Formative Period to the Late Period in the Southern Yocavil Valley.
