Geometric morphometrics in lanceolate projectile points from Central Hills, Argentina

First results of geometric morphometric techniques applied to a sample of lanceolate projectile points are presented in this paper. These lanceolate projectile points, also known as “ayampitín”, are common in the Central Mountains of Argentina and they are usually associated with hunter-gatherer occ...

Los resultados que se exponen y discuten en este trabajo constituyen un acercamiento inicial a la utilización de la morfometría geométrica como metodología aplicada al estudio de puntas de proyectil lanceoladas de las Sierras Centrales. Este tipo de instrumentos líticos pertenecientes a los sistemas de armas utilizados por los cazadores recolectores, comúnmente denominadas puntas “ayampitín”, constituyen un elemento diagnóstico de la tecnología existente en el área durante el Holoceno Medio. El análisis de variables morfométricas y su relación con la materia prima empleada permitió abordar la historia de vida de los artefactos y las variables de diseño existentes, reflejando una amplia variabilidad. El conjunto de cuarenta piezas es el primero al que se aplica esta metodología, por cuanto los resultados obtenidos son preliminares. Facultad de Filosofía y Humanidades.
