FRANCO, Francisco. Pottery raw materials in two diachronic components of the first millennium A.D. in El Sunchal (Anfama, Tucumán). Rev. Mus. Antropol. [online]. 2020, vol.13, n.2, pp.359-368. ISSN 1852-060X.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.31048/1852.4826.v13.n2.27923.

Abstract This contribution presents results of experimental, petrographic and X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies aimed at determining social practices linked to obtaining raw materials used by potters of El Sunchal (Anfama, Tucumán) during the first millennium A.D. For these purposes, the location of probable sources of supply in the valley has been identified, evaluating the feasibility of use and quality from the realization of experimental samples. The briquettes resulting from the experimentation were compared with the archaeological pastes of the main technological groups, based on the petrographic observation of twenty-two thin cuts, and seven fragment XRD. The results obtained would allow us to state the local origin of the raw materials used.
