Resumen

CABRERA, Fernando. G. Functional analysis of architectural unit RCh 8 at the archaeological site of Rincón Chico, Yocavil valley, Catamarca. Rev. Mus. Antropol. [online]. 2015, vol.8, n.1, pp.91-104. ISSN 1852-060X.

The present article evaluates, at the micro-scale, the recovered evidence at the Rincón Chico (RCh 8) residential complex, located in the lower sector of the archaeological site of Rincón Chico, Santa María, Valle de Yocavil, Catamarca. Two dates place the site in the Regional Developments Period (9th-15th Century AD). Ambrosetti (1897) first described similar architectural structures for the site of Quilmes, interpreting them as residential units; this interpretation has been accepted by other scholars. Evidence recovered as well as the architecture of the RCh 8 assemblage allow for their use as residential units. Nevertheless, there are certain discrepancies between what Ambrosetti proposes and our evidence such as differences in the distribution of activities in the structures and in the architectural components that are attributed to these structures. These differences are important in re-evaluating concepts concerning settlements in the Yocavil valley, such as the size of the groups that inhabited these sites or the storage scale in the area.

Palabras clave : Residential Unit; Regional Developments; Micro-scale; Rincón Chico; Yocavil Valley.
