LA CONSTITUCIÓN DEL PAISAJE EN LAS QUEBRADAS DE PEÑAS BLANCAS Y LA PAYA (LA POMA, SALTA) DESDE EL FORMATIVO HASTA MOMENTOS HISTÓRICOS.

Archaeological research in the Calchaquí Valley is uneven with respect to the knowledge of the societies that inhabited it in the past. While in the Cachi sector there is a long history of research, in the locality of La Poma archaeological interventions have been scarce. In this paper we present the partial survey of sites located in Peñas Blancas and La Paya ravines, located in the northern segment of the Calchaquí valley in the province of Salta. We will provide a brief description, as well as an overview of the conservation conditions of the sites surveyed. Since the conceptual approach is based on landscape archaeology, we are interested in emphasizing changes over time intervals. We used QGIS software to systematize the information and generate different hypotheses that allow us to account for the modifications and configurations that took place. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
