OSORIO, Daniela; SEPULVEDA, Marcela  e  CASTILLO, Camila. Análisis lítico y funcionalidad de sitio de los aleros de la precordillera de Arica (centro-sur andino) durante el período Arcaico (ca. 10.000-3700 años AP). Intersecciones antropol. [online]. 2016, vol.17, n.1, pp.77-90. ISSN 1850-373X.

The role of precordillera of Arica in the highlands of South Central Andean area during the Archaic period (ca. 10,000 to 3700 yr BP) is discussed based on site functionality, technological analysis of the lithic material, the contextualization of other kind of evidence, and 18 new radiocarbon dates from eight rock shelters. In addition, we seek to assess the existence of possible temporal variations of intra-site activities in order to obtain a diachronic and comparative perspective of the social dynamics(s) that occurred there. These results constitute a synthetic reassessment of the area after studies conducted in the 1980s.
