OBSIDIANAS EN SITIOS ARQUEOLÓGICOS AL SUR DEL LAGO ALUMINÉ, PROVINCIA DEL NEUQUÉN (ARGENTINA)
The results of the analysis of 30 samples of obsidian collected from 10 archaeological sites, two archaeological concentrations, two geological concentrations and one isolated artefact from south of lago Alumine, in the west-central part of Neuquen Province, Argentina. Considering the proximity of the obsidian source in Nevadas de Sollipulli (Chile), it was expected that at least some of these samples could come from this area, but this proved to be unfounded since all the artifacts and nodules analyzed have a chemical composition similar to the type of obsidian first reported from the secondary source of Portada Covunco, 50 km northeast of the study area, and also more recently found in multiple primary sources 20-30 km to the northeast along the river Kilca.

MAGALLANIA (Antigua serie Ciencias Humanas de Anales del Instituto de la Patagonia) the formerly called Social Science series of the Anales del Instituto de la Patagonia, Universidad de Magallanes, has regularly published one volume yearly since 1970 and a volume with two numbers since 2005. Its main purpose is to publish original and unpublished work preferentially done by Universidad de Magallanes researchers, and associated academics (faculty) from other national and international institutions, in the Social Sciences and Humanities and on topics referred to Patagonia, Tierra del Fuego, Antarctic and adjoining islands, and the South-eastern Pacific.
