Abstract
- An experimental program was carried out, which consisted of making 38 modern bone tools made from dry bone of Vicugna pacos "alpaca" and the antler of a Cervidae. The tools manufactured are garfishs, punches, spatulas, knives and chisels, which in the case of gasfishs were subjected to drilling dry alpaca leather and drilling a cotton textile (Gossypium barbadense). Another category was spatulas that were used for smoothing ceramic, scraping dry leather, scraping fresh leather, and thinning wood. Other tools were punches, knives and chisels, which had a use in various materials, according to the possible functions that they could have fulfilled in the past. The application of photon microscopy (optical microscopy) and electron microscopy (scanning electron microscopy) with EDS (Energy Dispersive X-rays), allowed to obtain a quantity of data of microprints in these experimental bone tools, which associated with EDS, allowed to characterize the functionality of a garfish, spatula and awl from the ZUM (Zona Urbana Moche), which indicates that the experimental program had important preliminary results.
