Resumen

Este trabajo se centra en la identificación de cambios operados en el procesado de materiales óseos en el Neolítico del sudeste europeo a partir de tres tipos de producción de manufacturas por la técnica de desgaste que son típicas de la región: bipartición por abrasión, segmentación con fibra y perforación por técnica de erosión. El procesado de las materias óseas viene muy condicionado por sus formas anatómicas naturales, razón por la cual solo un rango restringido de variables de transformación con cambios mínimos a través del tiempo es espera- ble. No obstante, numerosos especialistas invocan al valor cultural conferido por la comunidad como el elemento clave en la selección de materias primas más que estas limitaciones aludidas sobre la forma de la materia prima. Por ello, existen algunos ejemplos en donde ha habido poco cambio a lo largo del tiempo en la selección de las materias primas a pesar de haber habido variabilidad en la disponibilidad de especies animales. Como resultado de esto el estudio de los tres tipos de técnica de (manufacturado por desgaste) se torna más interesante. Estas técnicas no están presentes en la región en todo momento. Algunas de ellas aparecen en material óseo trabajado en Rumania y zonas adyacentes a principios del Neolítico pero desaparecen igual de rápido (bipartición por abrasión) o solo lo hacen de forma esporádica a principios del Calcolítico (perforación y segmentación con fibra). Basándonos en análisis experimentales de las tres técnicas de procesado y comparando ello con los conjuntos arqueológicos, nuestro estudio pretende incorporar todas las variables relevantes (gestos tecnológicos, tiempo requerido para cada operación, herramientas utilizadas, etc.) y evaluar si estas representan una innovación auténtica en el modo en que fueron procesados los materiales óseos.
