Abstract

This dossier brings together works presented at the symposium "From the sources: advances in the studies of selection and supply of rocks and their implications for social practices" carried out within the framework of the 1st Argentine Congress of Lithic Studies in Archeology. The presentations were made in a fruitful framework of discussion of theoretical proposals, methodological approaches, and case studies, which resulted in the seven works published here. The studies allow establishing a series of thematic axes that expose research interests oriented to the archaeological and geological characterization of sources of raw materials, to assess the progress generated from various methodological approaches, and others aimed at investigating production strategies, exchange and interaction implemented by peoples in the past.
