Resumen:
Ceramic coatings of pottery fragments from Cueva de Los Corrales 1, a site in the Argentine Northwest, are analyzed in this work.Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray energy dispersive analysis (EDS), X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) are used to identify coating material. Results are compared with compositional information of use-residues in grinding stone tools from CC1 site to differentiate pottery production stages within the rockshelter. The information obtained shows similarities between pigmentary mixtures and bone dust from grinding tools on one hand and the materials used in ceramic coatings on the other. The latter consist of a clay base with silicates -micas, quartz, feldspars and calcium aluminosilicates--, gypsum, charred bone dust and iron and manganese dark minerals -probably ilmenite, magnetite, pirolusite and manganite.
