| description |
We present the first results of the investigations carried out at the Laguna Giaccone archaeological locality, located in the Central Pampean Dunefields (Buenos Aires, Argentina). The objectives are to evaluate the taphonomic processes that affected the bone assemblage and to determine the animal species exploited, to identify the lithic raw materials, their area of acquisition and the technological trends developed on each rock, and to analyze the techno-morphological characteristics related to the manufacture of pottery. Among the processes and agents that most affected the faunal assemblage are manganese, rodents, trampling, and the action of insects. The guanaco, the greater Rhea and a cormorant were processed by the hunter-gatherer groups. Regarding the lithic material, orthoquartzite and chert from the Tandilia Hills are predominant and a wide diversity of rocks from other sources of the Pampean region were identified. We identified the last stages of the chaîne opérotoire and a wide variety of tools. A high number of vessels was recorded, some made using the roll technique and cooked under a non-oxidizing atmosphere. The morphologies correspond to open containers and some potsherds are decorated. The different lines of evidence suggest that part of the occupations correspond to loci of multiple activities camps developed during the Late Holocene, where various tasks related to the domestic sphere were carried out, such as the processing and consumption of animal resources, the manufacture and use of lithic tools, and the preparation of food in ceramic containers. |

Se presentan los primeros resultados de las investigaciones efectuadas en la localidad arqueológica Laguna Giaccone, localizada en el Campo de Dunas del Centro Pampeano (Buenos Aires, Argentina). Los objetivos son evaluar los aspectos tafonómicos que afectaron el conjunto óseo y determinar las especies animales explotadas, identificar las materias primas líticas, su área de procedencia y las tendencias tecnología desarrolladas sobre cada roca y analizar los aspectos tecno-morfológicos relacionados con la manufactura de la cerámica. Entre los procesos y agentes que más afectaron al conjunto faunístico se encuentran el manganeso, los roedores, el pisoteo y la acción de insectos. Se evidencia que el guanaco, el ñandú y un cormorán/biguá fueron procesados por los grupos cazadores-recolectores. Respecto del material lítico, predominan la ortocuarcita y la ftanita de las sierras de Tandilia y se identificó una amplia diversidad de rocas procedentes de otras fuentes de la región pampeana. Están presentes las últimas etapas de las cadenas operativas y una amplia diversidad de instrumentos. Se registró un alto número de vasijas, algunas confeccionadas mediante la técnica de rollo y cocinadas bajo una atmosfera no oxidante. Las morfologías corresponden a contenedores abiertos y algunos tiestos están decorados. Las distintas líneas de evidencia sugieren que parte de las ocupaciones corresponderían a loci de actividades múltiples desarrolladas durante el Holoceno tardío donde se efectuaron diversas tareas vinculadas con el ámbito doméstico, como el procesamiento y consumo de los recursos animales, la manufactura y uso de instrumentos líticos y la preparación de los alimentos en los recipientes cerámicos. São apresentados os primeiros resultados da pesquisa realizada no sítio arqueológico da Laguna Giaccone, localizado no Campo de Dunas do Centro Pampeano (Buenos Aires, Argentina). Os objetivos são avaliar os aspectos taphonômicos que afetaram a montagem óssea e determinar as espécies animais exploradas, identificar as matérias-primas líticas, sua área de origem e as tendências tecnológicas desenvolvidas em cada rocha, e analisar os aspectos tecno-morfológicos relacionados com a fabricação de cerâmica. Entre os processos e agentes que mais afetaram a montagem faunística estão o manganês, roedores, atropelamentos e insetos. Há evidências de que o guanaco, ema e um corvo-marinho/bigua foram processados por grupos de caçadores-colectores. Com relação ao material lítico, predominam o ortoquartzito e a ftanita das Serras de Tandilia, e foi identificada uma grande diversidade de rochas de outras fontes na região Pampeana. As últimas etapas das cadeias operacionais e uma grande diversidade de ferramentas estão presentes. Um grande número de embarcações foi registrado, algumas feitas com a técnica da bobina e acionadas sob uma atmosfera não oxidante. As morfologias correspondem a recipientes abertos e alguns sherds são decorados. As diferentes linhas de evidência sugerem que parte das ocupações correspondem a loci de múltiplas atividades desenvolvidas durante o Holoceno tardio, onde várias tarefas relacionadas ao ambiente doméstico foram realizadas, tais como o processamento e consumo de recursos animais, a fabricação e uso de instrumentos líticos e a preparação de alimentos em recipientes cerâmicos.
