The aim of this paper is to interpret the activities carried out by hunter-gatherer groups during the Late Holocene in surface contexts located in the upper basin of Tapalqué creek (province of Buenos Aires, Argentina). Since the material evidence consists almost exclusively of lithic materials, use...

Since the material evidence consists almost exclusively of lithic materials, use-wear analysis was performed on tools and flakes with natural edges. The proposed methodology allows discussing some aspects related to the integrity of the surface assemblages and the context of use of lithic materials. The results allowed us to identify different degrees and types of alteration on surface contexts, which were related to the depositional environment, the time of exposure to weather conditions and the raw material used. Also, we emphasize the identification of micro-polish in surface materials which are linked to the processing of different resources (leather, wood, plant, etc.). In sum, this study enabled us to expand the knowledge of the production activities developed in such contexts and allowed corroborating that Laguna La Barrancosa 2 site was a multiple activity locus, functionality inferred from other lines of evidence. El objetivo del presente trabajo es interpretar las actividades realizadas por grupos cazadores-recolectores durante el Holoceno tardío en contextos arqueológicos superficiales localizados en la cuenca superior del Arroyo Tapalqué (provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina). Dado que la evidencia material se encuentra constituida casi exclusivamente por materiales líticos, se efectuó el análisis funcional de base microscópica sobre los instrumentos y las lascas con filos naturales. La metodología propuesta posibilita discutir aspectos vinculados con la integridad de los conjuntos superficiales y con el contexto de uso de los materiales líticos. Los resultados obtenidos permitieron identificar diferentes grados y tipos de alteración en los contextos superficiales, los cuales fueron relacionados con el ambiente de depositación, el tiempo de exposición a las condiciones atmosféricas y la materia prima utilizada. A su vez, se destaca la identificación de micropulidos en materiales superficiales los cuales están vinculados con el procesamiento de diferentes recursos (cuero, madera, vegetal, etc.). En síntesis, el presente estudio permitió ampliar el conocimiento de las actividades productivas desarrolladas en este tipo de contextos y posibilitó corroborar que Laguna La Barrancosa 2 constituía un locus de actividades múltiples, funcionalidad inferida a partir de otras líneas de evidencia.
