Woody fuel use in the locality of Antofagasta de la Sierra (Catamarca, Argentina)

Background and aims: Ethnobotany provides conceptual and methodological tools used by Archeobotany and Anthracology to infer the possible uses that certain plant species had in a human group from the past and of which only their archeological remains have persisted until now. The objective of this w...

description Background and aims: Ethnobotany provides conceptual and methodological tools used by Archeobotany and Anthracology to infer the possible uses that certain plant species had in a human group from the past and of which only their archeological remains have persisted until now. The objective of this work is to characterize the relationship between the current inhabitants of Antofagasta de la Sierra (Catamarca, Argentina) and woody fuel species by studying the pre and post-collection practices associated with these plants. It is also intended to generate a corpus of ethnobotanical data that can be used for interpreting the data obtained during the analysis of remains of archaeological coal from Puna species. M&M: Ethnographic fieldwork was performed in different contexts, open and semi-structured interviews in the locality were carried out. Results: The results obtained indicate 16 taxa (locals and exotics for the area) used as fuels in different spheres of daily life (food cooking, heating, technology and rituality). Conclusions: The results are similar to another registered in different Andean localities and reflects the individual and groups decisions during the use of woody fuel. The increasing use of exotic charcoal is promoting a change in habits compared to local firewood. The articulation of anthracological and ethnobotanical data allowed us to glimpse the continuity in the use of certain taxa over time.

Introducción y objetivos: La etnobotánica brinda importantes herramientas conceptuales y metodológicas utilizadas por la arqueobotánica y la antracología al momento de inferir los posibles usos que tuvieron ciertas especies vegetales en el seno de un grupo humano del pasado y de los cuales solo han perdurado hasta el presente sus vestigios arqueológicos. El objetivo de este trabajo es caracterizar la relación existente entre los pobladores actuales de Antofagasta de la Sierra (Catamarca, Argentina) y las especies vegetales combustibles mediante el estudio de las prácticas pre y post-colecta vinculadas con dichas plantas. Se pretende además, generar un corpus de datos etnobotánicos que pueda emplearse al momento de interpretar los datos obtenidos durante el análisis de restos de carbón arqueológico de especies puneñas. M&M: Se llevaron a cabo entrevistas abiertas y semiestructuradas en la localidad. Resultados: Los resultados obtenidos señalan 16 taxa (locales y exóticos para el área) usados como combustibles en distintas esferas de la vida cotidiana (cocción de alimentos, calefacción, tecnología y ritualidad). Conclusiones: Los resultados obtenidos son similares a otros registrados en localidades andinas y reflejan las decisiones individuales y grupales al momento de usar los combustibles leñosos. El creciente uso de carbón de leña exótica estaría promoviendo un cambio de hábitos con respecto a las leñas locales. La articulación de datos antracológicos y etnobotánicos permitió vislumbrar la continuidad en el uso de ciertos taxa a lo largo del tiempo.
