Prácticas de preparación y consumo de alimentos en sociedades Aguada del Valle de Ambato, Catamarca (siglos VI-XI d.C.)
In the Ambato Valley, archaeological sites record activities related to food processing and storage under conditions of social and economic inequality, with differential access to resources. Within this framework, understanding the specifics of these activities is of interest to better comprehend the role played by the resource-food in the formation of these past societies. This study focused on identifying silicophytoliths and starch grains on r…

Morteros en rocas y otras superficies de ausencias en tiempos pre-coloniales en las Sierras de Córdoba, Argentina
Las rocas con cavidades, morteros o cúpulas son una constante en el paisaje arqueológico de los ríos y arroyos serranos de Córdoba, Argentina, sobre las cuales se han planteado diversas interpretaciones que ponen de manifiesto múltiples dimensiones y posibilidades de esta clase de objetos. Nos centramos en el caso particular de dos grandes rocas con 46 y 44 cavidades respectivamente, que se destacan en el tramo superior del río Soto, NO de Córdob…
Repensar la arqueología de Piedras Blancas
Se presenta un estado de conocimiento sobre la arqueología del sitio Piedras Blancas, en el valle de Ambato, Catamarca, correspondiente a ocupaciones de sociedades Aguada entre los siglos VI y XI d.C. Se revisa la información disponible y se realiza una nueva aproximación al sitio, repensándolo desde otra mirada que intenta incluir la posible ontología nativa vigente en aquel momento. Se propone un acercamiento al sitio y a los problemas plantead…
Situando miradas
Desde una mirada centrada en un diálogo entre la ontología nativa sudamericana perspectivista y la académica del autor, se realiza una aproximación al estudio de un registro particular, vasijas antropomorfas de sociedades Aguada, con el fin de estimar la vigencia de la primera y su potencial en la interpretación de objetos particulares y sus variadas relaciones en las sociedades originales. Desde una mirada que intenta ser ontológicamente situada…
Rematerializando ausencias
En este trabajo se relatan experiencias de trabajos de arqueología en ex Centros Clandestinos de Detención en la ciudad de Córdoba, Argentina, en función de demandas de la Justicia Federal. A partir de allí se reflexiona cómo, a través del trabajo arqueológico, el encuentro con los vestigios materiales de las detenciones y desapariciones forzadas de personas que pasaron por esos centros permite que esas ausencias forzadas se tornen en presencias,…

Habitando espacios vacíos. Cuerpos, paisajes y ontologías en el poblamiento inicial del centro de Argentina
Los modelos de poblamiento inicial de territorios desconocidos implícitamente ponen en juego ontologías del cuerpo y del espacio o la naturaleza, con dos ideas fuertes: la de espacios vacíos de humanos y la de un medio desconocido, una ‘terra ignota’. Se trata siempre de un encuentro entre grupos humanos y un espacio a descubrir, a experienciar, y en cuyo recorrido las poblaciones van relacionándose activamente con materialidades particulares y c…
Actas del Taller Interacciones socioeconómicas entre el noroeste argentino y norte de Chile en épocas prehispánicas, 26-30 de agosto de 1996
Propone la constitución de un comité permanente, un grupo de trabajo que esté siempre activo, de un lado y de otro de la cordillera, y que cada dos años puedan reunirse con tareas programadas: en tal sentido, este Taller sería el comienzo de una acción binacional
Unstable Contexts
This chapter examines the ontologically intricate history of my involvement with an archaeological mining site, a site at which one of the earliest anticolonial uprisings started during the carnival of 1775. Beginning with the usual involvement of an archaeologist with prior research, and expanding to incorporate diverse historical agents, the chapter rapidly diversifies to include not only my intellectual consideration of agency but also my bein…
Isótopos estables, dieta de camélidos y diferenciación social (valle de ambato, Catamarca, Argentina, siglos VI-XI D.C.)
In this paper we discuss how livestock production was organized in Ambato Valley, Catamarca, between the VI and XI centuries AD, based on new δ13C isotopic analyzes performed on camelid remains. The results achieved, together with those previously obtained in other studies, suggest the existence of two forms of livelihood of camelids: one of extensive mobility and varied food vs. other of restricted mobility and controlled feeding. The latter wou…
Llamas in the Cornfield
We report a study of the organisation of camelid production at the Ambato Valley, northern Argentine Andes, between the 6th and 11th centuriesad. We aim to contribute to the understanding of the different modes of economic production adopted in the past within non-egalitarian social contexts.In view of this, information collected from previous studies is analysed from multiple perspectives, centering on the application of different analytical tec…
Alberto Rex González. 1918-2012. In memoriam
Without a doubt, Alberto Rex González was the most influential figure in archaeological thought and practice in Argentina. In Cordoba in particular, he had a broad and profound impact on key aspects in the formation of the anthropological field and in the creation of a network of professional and personal links that defined an identity of belonging that transcended in time
Manufactura, uso y descarte? O acerca del entramado social de los objetos cerámicos
If we think that things and objects are the result of a multidimensional bundle of actions and relationships, material or inmaterial, made by human and nonhuman agents, it is difficult to keep thinking about the materiality of objects and the archaeological record in terms of processes, as a series of successive phases of actions or behaviors. These bundles between things and people are dynamics, steady flows of actions and relationships, where o…
Camelid handling in the meridional Andes during the first millennium AD
Stable isotope analysis has been used in archaeology to answer a variety of questions. In general, the study of human palaeodiets has been the main subject. Studies of past animal feeding behaviour have not been considered extensively in South America. In this paper we discuss the interpretation of theδ13C values in camelid bone specimens on the basis of published and new data from the southern Andes (northwestern Argentina). The temporal frame i…
Palaeodietary inferences based on isotopic data for pre-Hispanic populations of the Central Mountains of Argentina
The aim of this study is to investigate spatial and temporal patterns of palaeodiet diversification through isotopic measurements (δ13CCOL and δ15N) from individuals who inhabited the Central Mountains of Argentina during the Holocene. Isotopic measurements were obtained from bone and tooth samples from ten human skeletons, corresponding to the Middle and Late Holocene (4500-300 14C BP). Isotopic results show the consumption of C3, C4 and CAM pla…
Human colonization of the central territory of Argentina
In this study we test several hypotheses about the peopling of the central territory of Argentina, archaeologically known as Sierras Centrales, by testing the association between four alternative models of the peopling of the area and cranial morphological variation through distance and matrix correlation analyses. Our results show that the ancient inhabitants of Sierras Centrales demonstrated close morphological similarities with the Patagonian …
Arqueología del contacto hispano indígena
Locational structure of archeological underground storage pits in northwest Córdoba, Argentina
This report gives the results of an intra-site spatial analysis of underground bumed-earth features at a prehispanic site at central Argentina: El Ranchito, dated between 1000 B.C. and A.C. 1600. The features are locally known as botijas and they are recorded at the site as three concentration areas displaying a non-random distribution including between 100 and 120 botijas each area. Within them, a random distribution is recorded. The study was c…
Arqueología del contacto hispano indígena
This study of change and continuity in the Central sierras of Argentina examines the affects of contact between the indigenous population and colonising Spaniards, at the end of the sixteenth century. Based on excavations at four sites in the upper reaches of the Copacabana river and on the artefacts (pottery, stone) and environmental evidence found there
