| Sumario: | In this paper we present a first systematization of the features of early pottery found at the site Soria 2 (Yocavil Valley, Northwestern Argentina), focusing the analysis on the specimens belonging to the so-called fine pottery group. We aim at the characterization of a sample of the abundant ceramic material found in primary context for which there is a radiocarbon date from the beginning of the Christian era. The material is classified using the style category, considered here as the integration of morphological, technological and decorative aspects, which converge in the current “ways of doing” at those times of the site occupation. The analytical variables used are detailed: shape, manufacturing technique, paste, firing, surface treatment and decoration. The combination of these variables is the basis for the proposed stylistic modes. Additionally, we briefly discuss the practices in which the vessels were involved, taking into account the recovery contexts (domestic and funeral areas). The analysis suggests that some vessels of the ensemble exhibit stylistic affinities with others from surrounding spaces. |
