Campamentos residenciales tardíos a cielo abierto en el alto Río Cisnes (Región de Aisén): Appeleg 1 (CIS 009)

Abstract

We present the results of ongoing research of an open-air site in the upper Cisnes river. Appeleg 1 is a multi-component open air settlement dating to the last 1.500 years that shows a significantly diverse artefact assemblage. We present the context of the site, methods employed for recording and collecting spatial data, and the results of different analysis conducted on recovered material. We discuss some of the issues raised by the dataset and examine the potential of the methodology to investigate other open-air sites.
