Variabilidad en la producción de palas y/o azadas líticas de la Puna argentina

the variability of the assemblages of lithic shovels and/or hoes from two regions of the argentinian pune: site casa chávez montículo (department of antofagasta de la sierra , catamarca, southern pune), and doncellas (department of cochinoca, jujuy , northern pune ), is analysed from a technic-morphological perspective. the results reflect a great variability in the manufacture technique, general morphology of the artefacts and raw material used in both assemblages.
