César Méndez et al., « TERMINAL PLEISTOCENE LITHIC TECHNOLOGY AND USE OF SPACE IN CENTRAL CHILE », Chungará (Arica) - Revista de antropología chilena, ID : 10670/1.btem35
We synthesize lithic evidence from terminal Pleistocene sites in Central Chile (~31-34° S). Quebrada Santa Julia, Valiente, Taguatagua 1 and Taguatagua 2 sites show diverse assemblages, which are not fully understood by a traditional typological approach. This diversity can be better explained due to variations in discard rates, raw material availability, and site function. This approach allows the consideration of early hunter-gatherer occupations as integrated segments of a two-stage evolving use of space/mobility system.
