Abstract
Cerro Macareno’s tablet is a piece of fired clay with many incisions that pose puzzling chronological and functional queries. The information provided by the incisions has been studied with the purpose of elucidating their function. Following a coding process, several statistical techniqueshave been used. It has been proven that incisions are not randomly distributed. And while the idea that they might stand for some kind of writing loses weight, the fact that the piece may be a record of some event taking place over the time and/or space horizon is gaining importance.

Additional Information: | La Tableta de Cerro Macareno es una pieza de barro cocido con numerosas muescas grabadas que presenta severas incógnitas cronológicas y funcionales. Se ha estudiado la información manifestada a través de las muescas con el objeto de aclarar su función. Tras un proceso de codificación se han utilizado varias técnicas estadísticas. Se ha demostrado que las muescas no se distribuyen al azar y pierde peso la idea de que represente algún tipo de escritura. Adquiere fuerza la consideración de que la pieza constituya un registro de algún suceso distribuido en el espacio y/o en el tiempo. |
