Resumen
Descripción
Los botones Prosser son un tipo particular de botones de cerámica de producción industrial cuya
expansión comercial se desarrolló entre1840 y 1950/1960 aproximadamente, cuando fueron
desplazados por el plástico. Pese a su frecuente presencia en sitios arqueológicos del siglo XIX, en la
literatura arqueológica sólo se los menciona a título cuantitativo o descriptivo, sin otorgarles mayor
relevancia informativa.
El sitio arqueológico la Basurita (LB), primer vaciadero municipal de Rosario durante la segunda
mitad del siglo diecinueve, presenta una gran cantidad y variabilidad de este tipo de botón que ha
posibilitado su análisis.
Con base en la tesis de grado en Antropología de una de las autoras, en este trabajo se presentan las
tipologías de botones Prosser hallados en el sitio LB, y se introduce su potencial en cuanto a indicador
cronológico de sitios arqueológicos del siglo XIX gracias a su acotada y confiable cronología de
inicio y expansión comercial.
