Documentação da formação dos macrotraços em instrumentos líticos experimentais

Abstract

The research developed in this work was carried out within the scope of the documentation museum that is necessary for the recovery of intrinsic and extrinsic information of institutional archaeological collections. We approach the lithic industries of prehistoric peoples who manufactured their instruments for everyday use, to understand the marks of use, splinters, dullness, shine and striations, of the instruments of the site archaeological site of Piragiba which was an ancient indigenous village of horticulturists of the Tradition Aratu. Allowing the search of this data through experiments with the manufacture and use of replicas of archaeological chipped blades in different materials such as wood, earth and sand. Thus, by comparing the macrotraces of the experimental slides, it was possible to approach the use of archaeological lithic instruments.
