Hunting technology in the Antofalla Valley, Antofagasta de la Sierra Department, Catamarca

The hunting practice of wild camelids has been relevant for the reproduction of human populations in the South Central Andes for the last 12000 years. An important aspect for the materialization of this practice, are the weapons used in order to kill the alleged preys. In this paper we shall introdu...

description The hunting practice of wild camelids has been relevant for the reproduction of human populations in the South Central Andes for the last 12000 years. An important aspect for the materialization of this practice, are the weapons used in order to kill the alleged preys. In this paper we shall introduce the different weapons used by human populations, mainly, through the information obtained from the analysis of of lithic projectile points. As a case study we will retake the information obtained from the intensive and systematic prospection developed at the Antofalla ravine, located in the Departamento Antofagasta de la Sierra, Provincia de Catamarca. In order to evaluate the features of this technology, we will focus on three aspects: the techno-morphological characteristics of these instruments, the allocation to different types of weapons and their possible chronological implications and the spaces where these specimens were recorded, in relation with the characteristics of the hunting landscapes.
