The goal ofthis research is to understandpotteryproduction in the Alamito sites (northwestern Argentina), inhabited during the first centuries AD. To know this craft production is to enterinto the social dynamics of these human groups characterized by a particular way of building,distributing in the landscape and abandoning their dwellings. 55 sherds representative of thestylistic-morphological variability of the sample under study were selected and their fabricswere assessed using petrographic analysis. The methodology used includes the study of theclay matrix, classification of inclusions (type, size and shapes) and description of cavities. Theregularities and singularities observed in this data allowed to detect six classes of fabric, whichwere comparedwith fabric recipes from nearby areas. Thus, thispaper analyzed the relationshipsbetween the Alamito pottery and other ceramic productions of northwestern Argentina duringthe Formative Period.
