VAZ, Erika Borges; ALVAREZ, María Clara; BARROS, María Paula  e  KAUFMAN, Cristian. POTTERY TECHNOLOGY AMONG HUNTER-GATHERERS IN THE INTERHILLS AREA: THE CASE STUDY OF HANGAR SITE (GENERAL LAMADRID COUNTY, PROVINCE OF BUENOS AIRES). Relaciones [online]. 2022, vol.47, n.1, pp.61-70.

During recent decades systematic archaeological studies have been carried out in the Salado creek basin (Lamadrid county, Interhills area, Buenos Aires province). However, potsherds are one of the material items that have not yet been studied in detail due to their scarcity and high fragmentation at the local level. This work presents the first results of the macroscopic and microscopic analysis of the ceramic assemblage from the Hangar site, dated to the final Late Holocene. By evaluating the technical choices, vessels with simple morphologies and smooth surfaces were identified. Compositionally, two types of pastes were distinguished that account for the preparation and use of different raw materials for the production of the vessels. Finally, it is discussed whether this technology was produced locally or was obtained through interactions with neighboring groups.

Palavras-chave : Pottery; petrography; Pampas region; hunter-gatherer final Late Holocene.
