This paper presents an advance of the research carried out in the area where the obsidian source El Peceño is located, south of Mendoza (Argentina). In this work, we analyze a first technological approach of a set of lithic tools with morphology similar to shovels/hoes and/or lithic wedges, raw material available in the place.

This paper presents an advance of the research carried out in the area where the obsidian source El Peceño is located, south of Mendoza (Argentina). In this work, we analyze a first technological approach of a set of lithic tools with morphology similar to shovels/hoes and/or lithic wedges, raw material available in the place. We registered N =17 artifacts worked on sandstone and pelite, whose spatial distribution coincides with the quarry-workshop areas of obsidian. Techno-typological studies show that human groups selected large flakes to manufacture marginal unifacial artifacts and, to a lesser extent, bifacial, with irregular circular geometric morphology. The results allow us to inquire about their presence in the regional archaeological record and, in particular, in a site for raw material procurement. The presence of the different stages of reduction suggests that their production and discarding took place in El Peceño; it is proposed that their function could be linked to obsidian procurement tasks.
