Theoretical and methodological tools for the analysis of change in lithic technology: Contributions from an evolutionary perspective

Mostrar todas las versiones(3)

From an evolutionary perspective, we present a discussion of theoretical and methodological concepts for the study of archaeological lithic artifact variation. Thus, on the basis of the materialist ontology un-derlying Darwinian evolution, we discuss the concept of the dynamics of technological chan...

Thus, on the basis of the materialist ontology un-derlying Darwinian evolution, we discuss the concept of the dynamics of technological change as well as the units of analysis to address their study. We highlight the role of artifacts and their attributes as the main units, and we discuss the limitations of temporal units as Paleoindian and Archaic. In order to do this, we present a case study focused on the changes undergone by hunting technology in the Puna of Salta Province (Argentina) throughout the Early and Middle Holocene. Desde una perspectiva evolutiva, presentamos una discusión de conceptos teórico-metodológicos para el estudio de la variación de artefactos líticos arqueológicos. De este modo, partiendo de la base de la on-tología materialista que subyace al evolucionismo darwiniano, discutimos la concepción de la dinámica del cambio tecnológico así como las unidades de análisis para abordar su estudio. Destacamos a los artefactos y sus atributos como las unidades principales, y discutimos las limitaciones de unidades temporales como Paleoindio y Arcaico. Para esto, presentamos un caso de estudio centrado en el cambio de la tecnología de caza en la Puna de Salta durante el Holoceno temprano y medio.
