Arte rupestre pintado en el alero pampa el muerto 11 de la precordillera de Arica: Propuesta estilística y secuencia cronológica

Abstract

Rock art in the precordillera (2500-3800 masl) of Chile’s far north has generally been described at the macro or regional scale, omitting the particularities of the individual archaeological localities in which it is found. This paper presents the findings of a stylistic study of one of the region’s foremost rock painting sectors, Pampa El Muerto (3100 masl on average), focusing on Pampa El Muerto 11, which displays evident stylistic heterogeneity and multiple superimposed images.
