MOBILITY, PROCUREMENT AND USE OF OBSIDIAN IN EL PAYÉN, SOUTH OF THE PROVINCE OF MENDOZA, ARGENTINA

Human populations that occupied The Payunia during the late Holocene, used obsidian from outside sources, with predominant east-west directionality. In this paper we analyze the spatial distribution of obsidian artifacts from known geographical origin in El Payén. We investigate the possible transpo...

In this paper we analyze the spatial distribution of obsidian artifacts from known geographical origin in El Payén. We investigate the possible transport routes, procurement strategies and forms and intensity of use of that resource,from the base of technological and biogeography indicators. The results suggest that although the directionality of movement of obsidian matches that proposed for the region (west-east), its frequency decreases from south to north. The results also show differences in the number of sources represented and the procurement modes and use of this resource among Central, South and North sectors of El Payén. Las poblaciones humanas que ocuparon La Payunia en el Holoceno tardío, utilizaron obsidiana procedente de fuentes extra regionales con una direccionalidad de traslado predominante oeste-este. En el presente trabajo se analiza la distribución espacial de artefactos de obsidiana de procedencia geográfica conocida en el área El Payén. Se evalúan las posibles rutas de traslado, las estrategias de aprovisionamiento y la intensidad de uso de dicho recurso, sobre la base de indicadores tecnológicos y biogeográficos. Los resultados obtenidos plantean que si bien la direccionalidad de traslado de obsidiana coincide con la planteada para la región (oeste-este), su frecuencia en los sitios disminuye de sur a norte. Asimismo, los datos muestran diferencias en el número de fuentes representadas y en los modos de aprovisionamiento y uso de este recurso entre los sectores Centro, Sur y Norte de El Payén.
