Resumen
LAGUENS, Andrés G.; GIESSO, Martín; BONNIN, Mirta I. y GLASCOCK, Michael D.. Beyond the horizon: hunter-gatherers and log distance trade at intihuasi (San Luis, Argentina). Intersecciones antropol. [online]. 2007, n.8, pp.7-16. ISSN 1850-373X.
Recent research in the Andes indicates that obsidian was procured and distributed over long distances since the Late Pleistocene and until the Spanish conquest. In this research we used XRF at the Missouri University Research Reactor to determine the number of sources present in a collection of Intihuasi cave obsidian, and its potential provenience. Intihuasi is one of the archaeological sites with obsidian that is outside of the Andean area, and at least 300 km from the nearest source. These materials are at the Museo de Antropología of the Universidad Nacional de Córdoba. The location of one of these sources is northern Neuquén. They are made some suggestions in relation to long distance interactions.
