| description |
This paper presents an advance of the research carried out in the area where the obsidian source El Peceño is located, south of Mendoza (Argentina). In this work, we analyze a first technological approach of a set of lithic tools with morphology similar to shovels/hoes and/or lithic wedges, raw material available in the place. We registered N = 17 artifacts worked on sandstone and pelite, whose spatial distribution coincides with the quarry-workshop areas of obsidian. Techno-typological studies show that human groups selected large flakes to manufacture marginal unifacial artifacts and, to a lesser extent, bifacial, with irregular circular geometric morphology. The results allow us to inquire about their presence in the regional archaeological record and, in particular, in a site for raw material procurement. The presence of the different stages of reduction suggests that their production and discarding took place in El Peceño; it is proposed that their function could be linked to obsidian procurement tasks. |

Este trabajo presenta un avance de las investigaciones llevadas a cabo en el área donde se encuentra la fuente de obsidiana El Peceño, sur de Mendoza. Se realiza una primera aproximación tecnológica de un conjunto de herramientas con morfología similar a palas/azadas y/o cuñas, confeccionadas sobre arenisca y pelita, de disponibilidad local. Se registraron N=17 artefactos, con una distribución espacial que coincide con las áreas de cantera-taller de obsidiana. Los estudios tecno-tipológicos muestran que los grupos humanos seleccionaron grandes lascas para manufacturar artefactos unifaciales marginales y, en menor medida, bifaciales, con morfología geométrica circular irregular. Los resultados permiten indagar acerca de su presencia en el registro arqueológico regional y, en particular, en un sitio de aprovisionamiento de rocas. La presencia de los diferentes estadios de reducción sugiere que su producción y descarte tuvo lugar en El Peceño; se propone que su función pudo estar vinculada a tareas de aprovisionamiento de obsidiana. Este trabalho apresenta um avanço das investigações realizadas na área onde está localizada a fonte de obsidiana El Peceño, ao sul de Mendoza. Uma primeira abordagem tecnológica é feita de um conjunto de ferramentas com morfologia semelhante a pás / enxadas e / ou cunhas, feitas em arenito e pelita, disponíveis localmente. N = 17 artefatos foram registrados, com uma distribuição espacial que coincide com as áreas de oficina de pedreiras de obsidiana. Estudos tecno-tipológicos mostram que grupos humanos selecionaram grandes flocos para fabricar artefatos unifaciais marginais e, em menor grau, bifaciais, com morfologia geométrica circular irregular. Os resultados permitem indagar sobre a sua presença no registro arqueológico regional e, em particular, num local de fornecimento de rochas. A presença dos diferentes estágios de redução sugere que a sua produção e descarte ocorreram em El Peceño; propõe-se que a sua função possa estar vinculada a tarefas de provisionamento de obsidiana.
