The late landscape in Hualfín Valley: an archaeological reconstruction from protected villages

In this paper we present a relational landscape perspective and we analyze a set of archaeological sites (that we called protected villages because of their emplacement on top of hills with different grade of accessibility) for late moments in Hualfín Valley (Belén, Catamarca), considering archaeolo...

Results indicate that these villages have important differences (in grade and quality) between them in most variables. Otherwise, lines of vision show an important contrast between Southern Sector, absolutely integrated by direct relations, and Northern Sector, fragmented, with no direct visual lines between the villages. As from these results, we propose some lines to analyze related with aspects about temporal dimension (radiocarbon dates) and material objects dimension, particularly obsidian and different pottery styles distribution. We hypothesize that differences between Northern and Southern sectors could be a product of different grades of regional integration in the valley during fifteenth century, and maybe diverse socio-political responses dealing with the relations with local or foreign groups. En este artículo se presenta una perspectiva relacional del paisaje y se analiza una serie de sitios arqueológicos (que hemos denominado poblados protegidos por hallarse emplazados sobre lomadas o cerros con diferentes grados de accesibilidad) de momentos tardíos del Valle de Hualfín (Belén, Catamarca), considerando ciertos indicadores de la dimensión espacial como emplazamiento, topografía, barreras para el acceso, configuración espacial y campo visual. Los resultados indican que estos sitios presentan importantes diferencias (de grado y de calidad) en casi todas las variables consideradas. Por otra parte, el análisis de las líneas de visión entre los sitios muestra un contraste importante entre el Sector Sur del valle, totalmente integrado por relaciones directas de intervisibilidad, y el Sector Norte, mucho más fragmentado, sin líneas visuales directas entre poblados. A partir de estos resultados espaciales, se proponen algunas líneas de análisis en relación con aspectos de la dimensión temporal (fechados radiocarbónicos) y de los objetos materiales, particularmente la distribución de obsidiana y vasijas de distintos tipos cerámicos. Como principal conjetura se sostiene que la diferenciación entre los sectores Norte y Sur podría ser un reflejo de distintos grados de integración regional hacia el interior del valle durante el siglo XV, y tal vez de diferentes respuestas socio-políticas en relación a los vínculos con grupos tanto locales como foráneos.
