Resumen
El sitio Campo del Lago 4 se ubica en los campos de invernada de la estancia Bon Accord en la costa sur del lago Argentino (cuenca superior del río Santa Cruz). Sobre la base de una muy alta frecuencia de artefactos de obsidiana gris verdosa veteada (OGVV) y de artefactos formatizados confeccionados sobre otras materias primas líticas también de muy buena y excelente calidad para la talla se presentan las particularidades de este sitio en el contexto de la margen sur del lago Argentino y se evalúan las condiciones de obtención de la OGVV. Se discute su circulación a escala suprarregional comparada con la de otras dos obsidianas, la verde y la negra, también presentes en el sitio, pero en una frecuencia mucho menor.La circulación de la OGVV muestra una curva de distribución bimodal cuyos extremos corresponden a la margen sur del lago Argentino y al Campo volcánico Pali-Aike. En el primer caso, la proximidad a la fuente de origen habría resultado en el acceso directo, oportunista y poco usual; mientras que, en el segundo, el aprovisionamiento habría sido indirecto y se obtuvo por circulación de lascas y/o nódulos. Sobre la base de la representación artefactual regional, la fuente de la OGVV estaba espacialmente restringida o -más aún- sería muy puntual. La OGVV solo fue otra roca más de excelente calidad dentro de la panoplia de aquellas disponibles para la talla. Los sistemas cazadores recolectores -tanto en una escala regional como suprarregional- no la ignoraron cuando las circunstancias se daban, pero no la habrían requerido en demasía.
The Campo del Lago 4 site is located in the wintering grounds of the Bon Accord ranch on the Southern shore of Lake Argentino (upper basin of the Santa Cruz River). Based on a very high frequency of veined greenish-gray obsidian (OGVV) artifacts and tools made from this and other lithic raw materials also of very good and excellent quality for knapping, the particularities of this site are presented in the context of the South bank of Lake Argentino and the conditions for obtaining the OGVV are evaluated. Its circulation on a supraregional scale is discussed compared to two other obsidians, green and black, also present at the site but at a much lower frequency. The circulation of the OGVV shows a bimodal distribution curve whose extremes correspond to the Southern margin of Lake Argentino and the Pali-Aike volcanic field. In the first case, proximity to the source of origin would have resulted in direct, opportunistic and unusual access, while in Pali-Aike volcanic field, the supply would have been indirect and was obtained by circulation of flakes and/or nodules. Based on the regional artifactual representation, the source of the OGVV was either spatially constrained or, moreover, very focal. The OGVV was just another excellent quality rock in the panoply of those available for knapping; hunter-gatherer systems -both on a regional and supra-regional scale- did not ignore it when the circumstances arose, but they would not have required it too much.
