description	The lithic production system of hunter-gatherer groups involves different sites distributed in an archaeological landscape: quarries, quarries-workshop, logistics sites and residential bases. In the Quebrada Seca locality (Antofagasta de la Sierra, Catamarca), sites that have different functionality make up a settlement subsystem: residential bases or camps-workshop, sites of domestic activities and/or subsistence, hunting sites and quarries-workshop (among others). The latter played an important role in the techno-utilitarian activities of the inhabitants of the locality, at least, from the 9000 years BP. The aim of this work is to understand the technological strategies and the production process in a vulcanite quarry-workshop in Quebrada Seca. For this, systematic surveys, samplings and a techno-typological analysis of lithic assemblages were carried out. In the lithic contexts analyzed, different types of cores, flakes and retouched tools types were recorded, accounting for different instances in the reduction and/or knapping sequence. In order to the data collected the application of simple, multifacial, bifacial and centripetal knapping techniques to reduce cores and blank extraction (flakes) of different sizes (including large and very large flakes) was observed. Likewise, different tools trajectories related to biface shaping and marginal retouch of edges and tips (scrapers, knives) were recognized. From this research it was possible to know the activities type carried out in the quarry-workshop and its role as part of the settlement of the Quebrada Seca locality.

El sistema de producción lítico de los grupos cazadores-recolectores involucra distintos sitios distribuidos en un paisaje arqueológico: canteras, canteras-taller, sitios logísticos y bases residenciales. En la localidad de Quebrada Seca (Antofagasta de la Sierra, Catamarca), sitios con distinta funcionalidad conforman un subsistema de asentamiento: bases residenciales o campamentos-taller, sitios de actividades domésticas y/o de subsistencia, sitios de caza y canteras-taller (entre otros). Estas últimas desempeñaron un papel importante en las actividades tecno-utilitarias de los habitantes de la localidad, al menos, desde los 9000 años AP. El objetivo de este trabajo es comprender las estrategias tecnológicas y el proceso de producción en una cantera-taller de vulcanitas de la localidad Quebrada Seca. Para ello se efectuaron prospecciones sistemáticas, muestreos y un análisis tecno-tipológico de conjuntos líticos. En los contextos líticos analizados se distinguieron distintos tipos de núcleos, desechos de talla, artefactos formatizados y percutores que dan cuenta de diferentes instancias en la secuencia de reducción y/o formatización. En función de los datos reunidos se logró comprender, por un lado, las estrategias tecnológicas utilizadas para la explotación de materias primas y el uso del espacio en una cantera-taller de vulcanitas. Por otro lado, se logró constatar la importancia y el rol que tuvo esta cantera-taller para los ocupantes de los sitios residenciales y logísticos de la localidad arqueológica Quebrada Seca. O sistema de produção lítica de grupos de caçadores-coletores envolve diferentes locais distribuídos em uma paisagem arqueológica: pedreiras, pedreiras-oficinas, locais logísticos e bases residenciais. Na localidade de Quebrada Seca (Antofagasta de la Sierra, Catamarca), locais com diferentes funções compõem um subsistema de assentamentos: bases residenciais ou campos de oficinas, locais para atividades domésticas e/ou de subsistência, locais de caça e oficinas-quarries (entre outros). Estes últimos desempenharam um papel importante nas atividades tecno-utilitárias dos habitantes locais desde pelo menos 9000 anos BP. O objetivo deste trabalho é compreender as estratégias tecnológicas e o processo de produção em uma pedreira de vulcanite na localidade de Quebrada Seca. Foram realizados levantamentos sistemáticos, amostragem e uma análise tecnotipológica de conjuntos líticos. Nos contextos líticos analisados, foram distinguidos diferentes tipos de núcleos, entalhes, artefatos de forma e martelos, que mostram diferentes estágios na seqüência de redução e/ou moldagem. Com base nos dados coletados, foi possível compreender, por um lado, as estratégias tecnológicas utilizadas para a exploração das matérias-primas e o uso do espaço em uma pedreira de vulcanite. Por outro lado, foi confirmada a importância e o papel desta pedreira-workshop para os ocupantes dos locais residenciais e logísticos da localidade arqueológica de Quebrada Seca.
