Since the publication of S. Semenov?s Prehistoric Technology in 1964, microscopic analysis of archaeological materials has developed continuously. Nowadays it has become ?a must? in most of the archaeological investigations developed in Europe. However, this is not the case for the rest of the world. Publications produced along this process are not well known, not only in the Old World but also in North America. So, the purpose of this communication is to present an annotated bibliography of publications concerning Latino American archaeology or produced by Latin American scholars.
