Resumen
Descripción
El presente artículo da a conocer los resultados de trabajos de prospección realizados en el
valle de Guandacol, Dpto. Felipe Varela en el oeste de La Rioja, concretamente sobre ambientes
eólico-fluviales en las cuencas del Río Guandacol y La Troya. El propósito de este estudio
consistió en reunir información de carácter arqueológico y otros rasgos del paisaje, desde
una perspectiva regional y diacrónica en función de comprender la dinámica poblacional del
área y formas de ocupación del espacio. Mediante el trazado de transectas se relevaron concentraciones
de materiales, fundamentalmente cerámicos, y lugares de hallazgos aislados.
Nos focalizamos y efectuamos análisis espaciales utilizando herramientas proporcionadas
por los Sistemas de Información Geográfica (SIG) que nos permitieron evaluar distribuciones,
establecer relaciones entre las locaciones y el paisaje y vinculaciones con la Tambería
de Guandacol, núcleo de poblaciones adscriptas al período de los Desarrollos Regionales
(1100-1470 d.C.) y de dominación Inca (1470-1536 d.C.). Asimismo profundizamos en los
estudios tecnoestilísticos de los conjuntos alfareros que nos dieron cuenta de las variaciones
cronoculturales.
This article presents the results of survey work carried out in the Guandacol Valley, Felipe Varela in the west of La Rioja, especially and more specifically on aeolian-fluvial environments in the Guandacol and La Troya Rivers. The purpose of this study was to gather archaeological information and other landscape features, from a regional and diachronic perspective and in terms of understanding the population dynamics of the area and ways of space occupation. The area was surveyed through transect plots and concentrations of materials were revealed, mainly ceramics and isolated finds places. We focus on the spatial analysis using tools provided by the Geographic Information Systems (GIS), which allowed us to evaluate distributions, relationships between locations and the environment, and linkages with Tambería, the main town belonging to societies ascribed to the Regional Developments Period (1100-1470 A.D.) and Inca domination (1470-1536 A.D.). Likewise, the studies delved into techno-stylistic characteristics of the pottery, giving us a insight about chronology variations.
