摘要

本文分析了阿塔卡马普纳(南纬 21.9°-24.7°)考古遗址中 346 个弹丸的功能设计,这些弹丸属于公元前 12500-2400 年的文化序列。研究结果表明,在整个序列中,弹丸或武器技术发生了重大变化。首先是射弹点,其测量结果表明,在太古早期,矛-箭系统占主导地位,随后在太古中期,这些技术开始多样化和专业化,投矛和刺矛的使用显著增加。在晚太古时期,投射点的尺寸明显缩小,显示出的模式一直保持到早期形成时期。尽管如此,在这最后一个时期,一些测量值还是略有下降,而在有柄点的柄部宽度上发现了重大变化。对于这些最后的变化,我们提出了三种不同的假设:1)弓箭系统从太古晚期开始出现;2)弓箭系统仅从早期形成期开始出现;3)矛矛镖的减少和标准化,直到早期形成期之后才出现弓箭系统。我们认为前两种假设最有可能,尽管我们认为第一种假设最有可能。

Exploring ten thousand years of variation in weapons technologies: A diachronic analysis of lithic projectile points in the puna de atacama (northern Chile)

This article presents an analysis of the functional design of a collection of 346 projectile points from archaeological sites in the Puna de Atacama (21.9°–24.7° S) that belong to the cultural sequence dating from 12,500–2400 yr BP, which ranges from the earliest groups to inhabit the area to the emergence of the first agro-pastoralist societies. The results obtained reveal significant changes in projectile or weapons technologies throughout the sequence. This begins with projectile points whose measurements point to the predominance of the spearthrower-dart system during the Early Archaic, followed by the diversification and specialization of these technologies during the Middle Archaic, with a significant increase in the use of throwing and thrusting spears. In the Late Archaic, projectile point dimensions diminished significantly, displaying patterns that remained until the Early Formative. Nevertheless, during this last period some measurements decreased slightly, and a major change is detected in the haft width of stemmed points. Three alternate hypotheses are proposed for these last changes: 1) the presence of the bow-and-arrow system from the late Archaic onward; 2) the appearance of the bow-and-arrow system from the Early Formative only; 3) the reduction and standardization of spearthrower-darts, without the presence of the bow-and-arrow system until after the Early Formative. We argue that the first two hypotheses are the most plausible, although we consider the first to be the most likely.

期刊介绍: Quaternary International is the official journal of the International Union for Quaternary Research. The objectives are to publish a high quality scientific journal under the auspices of the premier Quaternary association that reflects the interdisciplinary nature of INQUA and records recent advances in Quaternary science that appeal to a wide audience. This series will encompass all the full spectrum of the physical and natural sciences that are commonly employed in solving Quaternary problems. The policy is to publish peer refereed collected research papers from symposia, workshops and meetings sponsored by INQUA. In addition, other organizations may request publication of their collected works pertaining to the Quaternary.
