CARACTERIZAÇÃO DA INDÚSTRIA LÍTICA DO SÍTIO LAPA GRANDE DE TAQUARAÇU, MG

Abstract

The archaeological site Lapa Grande de Taquaraçu is a rock shelter located in the municipality of Taquaraçu de Minas, MG. Its lithic industry was mostly manufactured from quartz crystals in order to produce flakes. Artifacts tend to show reduced metric attributes. These characteristics follow the pattern found in other Lagoa Santa sites.
