White on the outside, black on the inside: contributions from experimental archaeology to the understanding of sgraffito technique and white slips in the Aguada Portezuelo pottery (Catamarca, Argentina)

Archaeometric, physical, and chemical studies provide information regarding components of clay, paints, slip, and, specifically, the decoration process with graphite in Aguada Portezuelo ceramics.

description Archaeometric, physical, and chemical studies provide information regarding components of clay, paints, slip, and, specifically, the decoration process with graphite in Aguada Portezuelo ceramics. These data contribute knowledge about the current nature of these elements, guiding the identification of possible raw materials and their treatments. Although existing literature describes the physical and chemical behaviour of materials under controlled conditions, the study emphasizes the need to complement it, considering the impact of variable factors such as varying firing atmospheres and unknown proportions of components in ceramic pastes as well as in preparations for pigment mixtures. This research not only seeks to replicate white slips and surfaces with graphite decoration inspired by archaeological analyses of Aguada Portezuelo, but also to assess the impact that the shapes of the pieces' walls had on the final results. The approach includes evaluating the adherence of white slips, taking into account their fragility in archaeological records, and exploring the application of graphite decoration on exterior surfaces of vessels and on flat surfaces (briquettes). The ultimate goal is to improve the understanding of ceramic production in Aguada Portezuelo, shedding light on the decorative practices employed by artisans of that time.

Los estudios arqueométricos, físicos y químicos proporcionan información sobre los componentes de la arcilla, las pinturas, los engobes y, específicamente, el proceso de decoración con grafito en la cerámica de Aguada Portezuelo. Estos datos aportan conocimientos sobre la naturaleza actual de estos elementos, orientando la identificación de posibles materias primas y sus tratamientos. Aunque la literatura existente describe el comportamiento físico y químico de los materiales en condiciones controladas, el estudio destaca la necesidad de complementarla, considerando el impacto de factores variables como las atmósferas de cocción cambiantes y las proporciones desconocidas de componentes en pastas cerámicas y preparaciones para mezclas pigmentarias. Esta investigación no solo busca replicar engobes blancos y superficies con decoración grafitada inspiradas en análisis arqueológicos de Aguada Portezuelo, sino también evaluar el impacto de la morfología de las paredes de las piezas en los resultados finales. El enfoque incluye el análisis de la adherencia de los engobes blancos, teniendo en cuenta su fragilidad en registros arqueológicos, y explorar la aplicación de la decoración con grafito en superficies exteriores de vasijas y en superficies planas en los materiales de experimentación. El objetivo final es mejorar la comprensión de la producción cerámica en Aguada Portezuelo, arrojando luz sobre los tratamientos de superficie empleados por los artesanos de esa época. 2024-07-03 2024-08-02T01:17:04Z 2024-08-02T01:17:04Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Peer-reviewed papers Artículo evaluado por pares https://publicaciones.csnat.unt.edu.ar/index.php/mundodeantes/article/view/303 10.59516/mda.v18.303 https://suquia.ffyh.unc.edu.ar/handle/suquia/174701 spa https://publicaciones.csnat.unt.edu.ar/index.php/mundodeantes/article/view/303/253 Derechos de autor 2024 Mundo de Antes https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 application/pdf Instituto de Arqueología y Museo, Facultad de Ciencias Naturales e IML, Universidad Nacional de Tucumán Mundo de Antes; Vol. 18 No. 1 (enero-julio) (2024); e303 Mundo de Antes; Vol. 18 Núm. 1 (enero-julio) (2024); e303 2362-325X 1514-982X
