PUENTE, Verónica; PLA, Rita  y  INVERNIZZI, Rodrigo. LOCAL POTTERY FROM THE RAVINE OF LAS PITAS RIVER (CATAMARCA, ARGENTINA). CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE STUDY OF PEOPLE, KNOWLEDGE AND OBJECT CIRCULATION IN ANTOFAGASTA DE LA SIERRA DURING THE LATE PERIOD. Relaciones [online]. 2017, vol.42, n.1, pp.1-10. ISSN 0325-2221.

This work addresses the issue of ceramic production during the Late Period in the ravine of Las Pitas River (Antofagasta de la Sierra micro region). From this perspective, stylistic, petrographic and chemical information are integrated. Items of local and nonlocal pottery are identifed and their production patterns are characterized. Therefore, this information is supplemented with the raw materials sampled in the region and compared with compositional data of vessels and gredas of El Bolsón Valley (Belén Department), a section of the Sierra Valley of Northwest of Argentina (NOA) that shows evidence of relationships with the area of Antofagasta for this Period. Results are problematized in relation to different ways of interaction that coexisted in this zone, and it is concluded that local pottery was produced combining knowledge resulting from various regions.

Palabras clave : local pottery - interregional interaction - petrography - NAA.
