CERUTI, Carlos N.. Daily use artifacts represented in the Arroyo de Leyes pottery collection: their use in the determination of chronology. Rev. Mus. Antropol. [online]. 2014, vol.7, n.2, pp.00-00. ISSN 1852-060X.

Abstract The presence of daily-use artifacts (implements for mate infusion, a piggy bank, a horn cup and a “basket” used for the duck game) represented in the ceramic collection of Los Zapallos site, Arroyo Leyes (Garay Department, Santa Fe Province, Argentina) is analyzed. In this paper different elements are described, placed in a context considered in prima facie as resulting from the labor of enslaved individuals belonging to neighbors of Santa Fe la Vieja (XVIIth century), but that also may contain materials corresponding to contemporary or pre-conquest native cultures, to XVIII-XIXth centuries, and to “falsifications” of the early XXth century. On the basis of paste and piece decoration, and of argumental consistency derived from written documents, an attempt to place each element on the time scale is made.

Palabras clave : Arroyo Leyes; archaeology of slavery; Santa Fe la Vieja; chronology.
