| Sumario: | The archaeometallurgy is a discipline that is growing rapidly in the archaeological field. From the implementation of archaeometric techniques it has made progress in the knowledge about the different forms of production of metals. The reason why we have used a significant variety of analytical tools to develop this research. We sought to investigate a type of metal object that was part of the material culture of Mendoza from its creation as city. Analyses were performed on the materials clavazón that were part of the funerary contexts recorded in the Ruins of San Francisco; the aim of these analyses was to answer related questions with the production process (technology, manufacturing and raw materials committed to its development). To develop microscopy studies resorted to a group of electro-mechanical, including chemical engineers, and from an interdisciplinary work could reach clear and limited interpretations. Archaeometric results were considered significant and provided valuable information to fill with the purpose of the present investigation. |
