| Sumario: | We present an initial model on the change in hunting technology in the Puna of Salta during the early and middle Holocene, focusing on the change in the representation of weapons systems. For this, we followed a methodology based on the analysis of central tendency and dispersion in different diagnostic variables of weapon systems, measured in projectile points. Changes in hunting techniques and the impact of mechanisms such as decision making and cultural transmission in the dynamics of change are discussed from the resulting patterns. In turn, the results are compared with other areas of the South Central Andes from a macro-regional perspective. |
