| Sumario: | Investigations are presented on the site Filo de la Aguada, an outcrop of metamorphic rocks in the open with engravings. This site is located on the eastern slopes of the hills of Cerro Negro, northern sector of the Quebrada de Humahuaca, 10 km northeast of the city of the same name. Based on the information retrieved from the analysis of representations, their location and their archaeological context, we propose a direct association with areas of the site dedicated to pastoralism and hunting.
Fall within this activity both pastoral farming and exploitation of the llama as the symbolic management of livestock by pastoralists. They would be in areas adjacent to crop fifi elds to agricultural complex Coctaca-Rodero, functionally different, but articulated in relation to a particular socio-economic practice (eg agro-livestock). Regarding the chronological placement of the representations, the information available to other rock art sites in the area of the mountains, holding a predominance of rock joint for Late periods, Inca and Hispano-indigenous. However, the relative chronology of rock art identified based on different indicators and correlated with the social processes occurring in the Quebrada de Humahuaca, would presumably extend this temporal moments earlier, at least for this site. |
