Resumen
CHARLIN, Judith. Exploring the reduction intensity of lithic raw materials in Pali Aike (Santa Cruz province, Argentina). Intersecciones antropol. [online]. 2007, n.8, pp.287-299. ISSN 1850-373X.
The main goal of this paper is to evaluate the intensity of human utilization of lithic raw materials in Pali Aike (southern Santa Cruz Province, Argentina). The sample includes artifacts unifacially retouched and/or with macroscopic edge-wear damage from different Late Holocene localities within Pali Aike. The variables considered include the length of the artifacts, fragmentation, amount of retouched and/or wear damaged edges and/or points by artifact, percentage of cortex, and resharpening. The results show that some variables point to differences in the intensity of exploitation of different raw materials, while others are not sensitive to this variation.
