Resumen:
Two groups of pottery are compared. A first set dates from the late Holocene and are fragments of decorated pottery (D1 to D4, C32) of hunter - gatherers - and fishermen societies from two campsite settlements. At these locations, many activities, including the manufacture of pottery, were carried out. The second group (B42,B40, B41) contains samples of indigenous tradition pottery dating from XIX century, collected in historical archaeological context. They show similar pattern of pottery manufacturing and decoration as the first group. There is a discussion relating to whether all the shards were made by Indians in the city, following their tradition or traded. The aim is to test the hypothesis comparing the two group of samples.
