This narrative is the only document written in real time from a direct witness of the accounts he described.

En este trabajo se estudia el diario del explorador portugués Pero Lopes de Souza en 1531 al Río de la Plata y al Delta Inferior del río Paraná desde una perspectiva histórica y arqueológica. Este relato es el único documento de la época escrito en tiempo real por un testigo directo de los acontecimientos que describe y por lo tanto es una fuente de calidad superlativa para conocer los primeros momentos de la exploración europea en el Río de la Plata y para abordar el estudio de los indígenas que habitaban el área a principios del siglo XVI. En este artículo se resumirán y discutirán las observaciones de Lopes de Sousa en el contexto de la historia del Río de La Plata en la primera mitad del siglo XVI y de las investigaciones arqueológicas recientes.
