Sumario:The archaeological site Ruinas de Quitilipi is located in the Quebrada de Las Conchas Provincial Natural Reserve, in the province of Salta. This preliminary communication presents the results of the surveys and architectural recording.  Field tasks consisted of photographic documentation of surface evidence such as architecture, ceramics, lithic material, burials and metal smelting remains. For the elaboration of an initial planimetry, and a delimitation of the extent of the site, UAV flights were carried out, an orthomosaic was designed and the information was processed in QGIS to create a geo-referenced planimetry.  The survey work was carried out in collaboration with the Diaguita Suri Calchaquí community of Santa Barbara, which also allowed us to access other archaeological sites in the ravine that were previously unknown to us.
