Paiján Point Technology in Brazil? Morpho-technological Considerations on a Crystal Quartz Point
We report a Paiján-style crystal quartz projectile point from Ilha dos Moisés (São Francisco River, Northeast Brazil), far beyond the securely documented Andean range of Paiján technology and recovered from a surface palimpsest. Using diagnostic criteria, morphometrics, and technological comparison with the Peruvian reference series, we assess similarity at the artifact level. The specimen displays a pronounced apical “needle,” a convex-sided bod…
Microscopic Use-Wear Evidence for an Itaparica Uniface as a Hafted Multifunctional Tool
This report presents the results of a microscopic use-wear analysis on a unifacial tool from an Itaparica-like context at the Toca dos Coqueiros site, in Serra da Capivara National Park, Northeastern Brazil. The analysis focuses on evidence of hafting and multifunctionality. These artifacts, found in central and northeastern Brazil from the late Pleistocene to the early Holocene, are associated with the Itaparica technocomplex. We present evidenc…

Una evolución del pensamiento sobre los artefactos líticos arqueológicos
Este artículo propone una breve revisión histórica y un estado actual de las investigaciones en Sudamérica en torno a los objetos líticos tallados. Particularmente, se evalúa la influencia del pensamiento de la escuela francesa a través de las investigaciones tipológicas y tecnológicas en este sub-continente. En un primer momento, se revisan los aportes de la percepción tipológica del material lítico, y de la racionalidad que le prosiguió con la …
Quand la pierre fait l'outil
L'étude des artefacts lithiques est considérée comme un aspect crucial pour comprendre la relation complexe entre l'être humain et son milieu associé pendant la préhistoire. Il est largement admis parmi les préhistoriens que ces artefacts sont le résultat d'une dynamique épigénétique entre la disponibilité des ressources minérales et les capacités techniques des individus. Le principal objectif de ce travail est de repenser l'importance des outil…
Another “Critique,” Same Old Song
This comment is a brief response to the bibliographic review made by Gómez Coutouly in this issue of PaleoAmerica. We reaffirm that the anthropic nature of the Pleistocene sites in the southeast of Piauí has already been demonstrated. Based on this, we show how many skeptics with mainstream thinking reproduce a scientific ideology regarding the peopling of the Americas
