description In this article, preliminary results obtained by the trampling experimentation over glass fragments are presented. This experience allowed us to create an experimental sample with the aim of analyzing and determining the edge traces generated by trampling activity, and to discriminate them from human-made features. During our research in Somuncurá plateau, we have recorded superficial archaeological sites like palimpsests which were occupied since late Holocene until the present. In these sites, modified edges on glass artifacts were observed. Given that trampling activity is frequent in these contexts, we consider the experimentation pertinent to assess the involvement of this process as a traces generator (edges, retouches, fractures). In some cases we observed a high frequency of attributes that mimic retouch. Thereby, a contextual analysis is necessary to distinguish between artifacts and pseudoartifacts. The information presented here constitutes an empirical base that provides reference elements to identify postdepositional damage in archaeological sites with glass.
