| Sumario: | We analyze in this paper late ordinary ceramics from Puerta de Corral Quemado (Dpto. de Belén, Prov. de Catamarca), found in scattered burials and in the excavated structures from El Molino, an archaeological site in Argentinean Northwest which belongs to Regional Developments Period (1100-1480 D.C.).Technical elections related with shape and size during the manufacture process allow potters to make suitable vessels for specific uses. Thus, the shape and size are indirect evidences to make hypothesis about which functions were the vessels appropriated for. In this paper we make a description of shape and size of fragmentary and complete pieces, and present some hypothesis about its functional possibilities.In the analyzed ordinary vessels we observe a wide variety of shapes and sizes, and a tendency to morphological regularity in certain types of pieces. Related to the inferred functions, we found probable differences between vessels from the domestic and the funerary sphere. |
