Abstract From research project Technological variability and social interaction networks in Northwestern Argentina through the study of lithic technology y Formative Period, lithic assemblages from diverse areas in Northwestern Argentina are analyzed with the main goal of widening studies regarding obsidian distribution spheres at about 2000 Bp. Assemblages come from: Puesto Viejo 2, in Tucumán province, Cueva de Cristóbal, in Jujuy, and SSalLaV 1(8) and Salvatierra, both of them in Salta province. In this paper a comparative analysis among mentioned assemblages is presented. The spotlight is on representation and treatment dedicated to non local obsidians, looking for patterns in different scales and provenance sources linking raw material local offer in the sites area.

Palabras clave : lithic material; non local obsidians; Northwestern Argentina; social interaction networks; Formative Period.
