Trace element analysis of obsidian sources and artifacts of Central Chile (Maule River Basin) and Western Argentina (Colorado River)
Abstract
The present paper describes obsidian sources and compositional analysis performed on obsidian recovered from natural flows in the upper Maule River basin (central Chile). We compare the composition of this obsidian with that of obsidian artifacts recovered from selected archaeological sites both in the middle and lower valley of the Maule River and in the Argentinian provinces of Mendoza and Neuquén. The results indicate that the collected obsidian samples can be separated into six major groups. Most of the obsidian artifacts are assignable to a particular source area, but there still remain some unknown sources. We conclude that the Laguna del Maule source area was exploited from at least 50 A.D. onward and that the material was distributed to sites located more than 200 km from the source.

The macro-regional obsidian archaeological record is dominated by two large high-altitude sources: Las Cargas and Laguna del Maule.
“The macro-regional obsidian archaeological record is dominated by two large high-altitude sources: Las Cargas and Laguna del Maule (Seelenfreund et al., 1996;Dur an et al., 2004;Giesso et al., 2011;Cortegoso et al., 2014b).”

Laguna del Diamante and Cerro Huenul are both secondary sources; compared to Andean primary sources such as Las Cargas and Laguna del Maule, they are surpassed in the size of blanks that can be produced.
“Laguna del Diamante and Cerro Huenul sources are both secondary sources.When compared to Andean primary sources, such as Las Cargas and particularly Laguna del Maule (Seelenfreund et al., 1996), these sources are amply surpassed in terms of the size of blanks that can be produced.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
