description T The early sedentary societies of Antofagasta de la Sierra (southern Argentine Puna) have been studied through a model that proposes a mixed agro-pastoral settlement-subsistence system involving functionally complementary occupations across the different environmental sectors of the basin. In recent decades, a series of sites in the intermediate sectors of the basin have shown that the variability of the living spaces is broader than expected under the site-categorization scheme of the model (residential bases vs. logistical campsites). Within this framework, the techno-typological analysis of the lithic assemblage from Structure 4A (E4A) at the Las Escondidas site, located in the intermediate sector of the Miriguaca River ravine, addresses the functional expectations for sites in these sectors, characterized by particular environmental conditions. Furthermore, the indices of artifact diversity and homogeneity at this site allow these expectations to be evaluated relationally with other sites in the area. Taken together with the typological characterization of the assemblage, the raw materials, production trajectories, and the reconstruction of practices linked to the production and use of lithic tools at E4A, these data highlight previously overlooked aspects of lithic technology in the evaluation of settlement models and suggest possibilities of site occupation that may have been underestimated.

T The early sedentary societies of Antofagasta de la Sierra (southern Argentine Puna) have been studied through a model that proposes a mixed agro-pastoral settlement-subsistence system involving functionally complementary occupations across the different environmental sectors of the basin.

Las sociedades sedentarias tempranas de Antofagasta de la Sierra (Puna meridional argentina) se han estudiado a partir de un modelo que plantea un sistema de asentamiento-subsistencia mixto agropastoril que involucra ocupaciones funcionalmente complementarias en los distintos sectores ambientales de la cuenca. En las últimas décadas, una serie de sitios en los sectores intermedios de las quebradas han mostrado que la variabilidad de los espacios del habitar es más amplia que lo planteado por las expectativas de la categorización de sitios del modelo (bases residenciales/puestos logísticos). En este marco, el análisis tecno-tipológico del conjunto lítico de la estructura 4A (E4A) del sitio Las Escondidas, en el área intermedia de la quebrada del río Miriguaca, permite atender las expectativas funcionales para los sitios de estos sectores, en una zona con condiciones ambientales particulares. Además, los índices de diversidad y homogeneidad instrumental de este sitio permiten evaluar estas expectativas en términos relacionales con otros sitios del área. Estos datos, en conjunto con la caracterización tipológica del conjunto artefactual, las materias primas, las trayectorias de producción y la reconstrucción de las prácticas vinculadas con la producción y utilización de instrumentos líticos en la E4A llaman a considerar aspectos desatendidos de la tecnología lítica a la hora de evaluar los modelos de asentamiento, y plantean posibilidades de ocupación del sitio que pudieron ser pasadas por alto.   Instituto de Arqueología, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires 2026-01-26 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf text/html https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/16803 10.34096/arqueologia.t32.n1.16803 Arqueología; Vol. 32 No. 1 (2026): Vol. 32(1); 16803 Arqueología; Vol. 32 Núm. 1 (2026): enero - abril; 16803 1853-8126 0327-5159 spa https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/16803/15843 https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/16803/15845 Derechos de autor 2026 Natalia Sentinelli https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0
