Lithic technology in guaraní contexts. Results of the analysis of “Isla Martín García” and “La Correntina” collections

The studies of Guaraní technology have focused mainly on pottery, disregarding other components of their material culture, such as lithics.

However, recently there has been an increase in the systematic analysis of the latter. In this paper, we present the techno-morphological analysis of two lithic assemblages that are part of the Guaraní archaeological collections “Isla Martín García” and “La Correntina”. Results suggest that the lithic production was oriented towards obtaining bipolar flakes made from local rocks. Also, the identification of specific artifacts suggests activities related to the production of tembetás, wooden shafts, and grounded axes. Los estudios sobre tecnología guaraní han estado enfocados principalmente en la alfarería, relegando otros componentes que constituyen la cultura material, especialmente los artefactos líticos. Sin embargo, en las últimas décadas se observa un aumento en los análisis sistemáticos de estos materiales en particular, previamente postergados. En este trabajo se presenta el análisis tecno-morfológico de dos conjuntos líticos que forman parte de las colecciones arqueológicas guaraníes “Isla Martín García” y “La Correntina”. Los resultados sugieren que los objetivos de talla en los sitios estuvieron orientados a la producción de lascas por talla bipolar a partir de rocas locales. Además, la presencia de ciertos instrumentos indica que se habrían llevado a cabo tareas relacionadas con la confección de artefactos cilíndricos (como tembetás) y astiles de madera, y con la formatización de filos agudos, como el de las hachas pulidas. application/pdf text/html https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/7686 10.34096/arqueologia.t27.n1.7686 spa Instituto de Arqueología, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/7686/8743 https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/7686/11999 Derechos de autor 2021 Franco Pazzi Arqueología; Vol. 27 No. 1 (2021): January-April; 179-191 Arqueología; Vol. 27 Núm. 1 (2021): enero-abril; 179-191 1853-8126 0327-5159 Guaraníes Lithic assemblages Techno-morphological analysis Guaraníes Conjuntos líticos Análisis tecno-morfológico Lithic technology in guaraní contexts.
