Resumen

ELIAS, Alejandra M.  y  ESCOLA, Patricia S.. Exploitation and use strategies of lithic resources in agricultural-pastoral societies of southern Argentine puna. Cuad. Fac. Humanid. Cienc. Soc., Univ. Nac. Jujuy [online]. 2007, n.32, pp.111-133. ISSN 1668-8104.

It has been formulated that the inhabitants of Antofagasta de la Sierra microregion (Catamarca Province, Southern Argentine Puna) experimented since ca. 2000 years BP a process of change from a pastoral subsistence, with important mobility between different micro-environments, to a greater importance of farming component, along with a progressive sedentary settlement pattern and demographic increment (Olivera y Podestá, 1993). These tendencies would have been deepened to ca. 1000 years BP and with the arrival of Inka Empire (Olivera y Vigliani, 2000/02). The objective of this paper is understand the variation through time of the strategies related to the exploitation and use of lithic resources in connection with the changes formulated about societies' subsistence and mobility. We are going to focus on different lithic resources's representation and frequencies in the stone tool assemblages of two sites: Casa Chávez Montículos 1 y La Alumbrera. The first is a formative residential base, occupied between ca. 2400 and 1300 years BP (Olivera, 1992). The second is a big settlement assign to Latter and Inka periods, after ca. 1000 years BP (Olivera, 1991). The obtained results allowed the initial contrast of our hypotheses. The instrumental set of La Alumbrera differences of the one of Casa Chávez Montículos 1 by the predominance of 'very immediate' lithic resources and the lower frequency of representation of those resources whose sources are in height gorges.
