Resumen

MORENO, Enrique  y  SENTINELLI, Natalia. (Lithic Technology in the highlands of El Alto-Ancasti, Catamarca). Cuad. Fac. Humanid. Cienc. Soc., Univ. Nac. Jujuy [online]. 2014, n.45, pp.95-115. ISSN 1668-8104.

The highlands of El Alto-Ancasti (Ancasti Department, Catamarca Province) have been historically built as areas of cultural transition between the Andean zone to the west and the Chaco-santiagueña region to the east, establishing itself as a sparsely populated area, where there should have been developed two principal practices: the camelid's herding and the performance of rituals based on the consumption of the cebil and the representation of scenes through rock art in caves and eaves. However, recent investigations found evidence of another occupation form of this space, related to agricultural practices and residential units. These evidences would be related to permanent human occupations with a long term work investment.             The specific object of this paper is to deepen the domestic scale in this area, specifically regarding practices developed in that place and interpreted through the study of lithic technology recovered from the excavation of two site enclosures El Taco 19 (T19). These materials will allow an approach to the selection of raw materials for the instrument's manufacturing, as well as the technological characteristics of these sets and the possible practices in which they would have participated.

Palabras clave : Lithic Technology; Domestic Scale; Social Landscape; Raw Material.
