Abstract

Otamendi fortlet is located in Buenos Aires province (Argentina) and was occupied from 1858 to 1869. Previous archaeological research has yielded large quantities of artefacts from the site; the present study focuses on firearms and related material. The aim of this project is to identify and characterize the firearms to establish their function, place of origin and chronology. They are compared to the archaeological record of Minaña fortlet to understand the diversity of armament technology in border military settlements of the South Frontier against indigenous people during the second half of the nineteenth century in Argentina.
