Abstract

ABSTRACT Abrigo La Tinta (La Tinta Rockshelter) is located in the Tandilia mountain range of Argentina. The excavation of two test-pits during a survey revealed buried archaeological remains, including lithic artifacts, ceramic, mineral pigments, and charcoal. A charcoal fragment recovered in the deepest section of Test-pit 2, in association with quartzite and chert flakes, was dated in 10,414 ± 32 14C yr BP (12,408 to 12,041 cal yr BP), suggesting a late Pleistocene-early Holocene human occupation.
