Abstract
This study, in Spanish, is a phytolithic investigation of the various plants found at the Las Vegas site (OGSE-80) on the Santa Elena peninsula, Ecuador. Piperno also discusses evidence for maize cultivation at the site which she dates to the late Las Vegas phase (ca. 7,000 B.P.). Some information is also presented on the techniques of lab analysis employed in the examination of the samples.
