Resumen
Este trabajo analiza el conjunto arqueofaunístico del Alero 12 de la formación rocosa Las Grutas (Tinogasta, Catamarca) para dar cuenta de las actividades humanas vinculadas a los animales que se desarrollaron durante su ocupación. Así, se propone que los grupos humanos que usaron el alero hace ca. 590 años AP lo hicieron de manera temporal. Allí, desarrollaron actividades pastoriles y de caza de animales silvestres, fundamentalmente vicuñas, aunque no se descarta el de aves y roedores. Mientras ciertas partes esqueletarias de Camelidae fueron consumidas in situ, otras fueron transportadas para su consumo diferido, almacenamiento y/o intercambio. Si bien el Alero 12 presenta un fechado que coincide con la ocupación incaica de la región y se encuentra próximo al sitio San Francisco Inca –vinculado a eventos festivos promovidos por el incario–, su uso no se relaciona con prácticas imperiales. En este sentido, se propone que quienes utilizaron el alero fueron integrantes de las sociedades agropastoriles de la región que desarrollaron actividades de caza-pastoreo por fuera del control incaico.
This article analyses the archaeofaunal assemblage from Alero 12 of the Las Grutas rock formation (Tinogasta, Catamarca) to study/account for the human activities related to animals that developed during its occupation. We suggest/It is argued that Alero 12 was temporarily inhabited by human groups ca. 590 years BP. At the site, they hunted wild animals, mainly vicuñas, although birds and rodents cannot be ruled out. While some camelid skeletal parts were consumed in situ, others were transported for later consumption, storage and/or trading. Although Alero 12 is located near to the San Francisco site –a site used for state sponsored feasts– and also presented a radiocarbon date that coincides with Inca occupation of the region, its use was not related to imperial practices. In this sense, we propose that the inhabitants of Alero 12 were members of the regional agropastoralist societies that developed hunting activities outside of inca control.
