About the Book

The site of Chipana-1 is located in the middle of the Atacama Desert, in the Pampa del Tamarugal (PdT), 1200 m asl. The site is a good example of past societies adaptation to hyper-arid environments, and provides new insights into the early human occupations of South America. The well-preserved stratigraphic record, together with 13 radiocarbon dates, show that the site was occupied around 11,480 cal BP. Chipana-1 is a lithic raw-material extraction and workshop site, of a silicified rock of good quality, mainly related to the production of bifacial tools (faconnage), and to a lesser extent, of flakes (debitage) on surface. This is the first site in northern Chile that provides information on the first stages of lithic production, such as raw-material selection and reduction (degrossissage). In addition, flakes resulting from faconnage (shaping method) suggest the local elaboration of large bifacial pieces that have not been recovered on site, indicating that part of the production was probably exported elsewhere, within and outside the borders of the PdT. Some smaller flakes also suggest a local production of "Tuina" type projectile points, a morphotype well-known in the regions south of the Atacama Desert. One can highlight the presence of flakes of allochthonous raw-materials, imported from other areas, which have been flaked at Chipana-1 in order to produce bifacial tools. Chipana-1 was an important location for Late Pleistocene hunter-gatherer groups, poorly known until now, for the gathering of raw-materials and lithic production in the Atacama Desert. The site was integrated within a broader network of mobility that we are just starting to discover. u El sitio Chipana-1, situado en pleno corazon del Desierto de Atacama en la Pampa del Tamarugal (PdT) a 1200 msnm, refleja la adaptacion de antiguas sociedades humanas a un ambiente hiper-arido, y aporta nuevos datos al debate sobre las primeras ocupaciones humanas en America del Sur. La buena conservacion estratigrafica y 13 dataciones 14C muestran que el sitio fue frecuentado alrededor de los 11.480 cal BP. Chipana-1 es un sitio de produccion litica esencialmente de faconnage (modelado) bifacial, con un minimo de debitage (desbaste) de lascas, observables en la superficie de esta gran cantera-taller de roca silicificada de buena calidad. Este tipo de sitio es inedito dentro del norte de Chile, debido a que permite observar las etapas iniciales de elaboracion como la seleccion cualitativa de la materia prima y su preparacion (degrossissage). Ademas, lascas del faconnage indican la elaboracion de grandes piezas bifaciales no encontradas en el sitio, probablemente fueron exportadas a otras areas dentro y fuera de la PdT. Algunas lascas mas pequenas senalan la produccion de una punta de proyectil tipo "Tuina", conocida en tierras altas hacia el sur del Atacama. Destacamos tambien la presencia de lascas de faconnage bifacial de materias primas aloctonas, que fueron importadas a la cantera como productos ya trabajados en otros sitios. Asi Chipana-1 fue, para grupos de cazadores recolectores aun desconocidos al final del Pleistoceno, un punto importante de adquisicion de roca tallable y de produccion litica en el Desierto de Atacama, insertado en un circuito de movilidad que recien comenzamos a develar.
