Archaeological evidence of the use of clay as raw material in the argentinian architecture of the early colonial period

The founding of cities in the north and west of the República Argentina during the first century of Iberian conquest was a complex process of trial, error and articulation of a variety of resources and techniques. Raw materials and constructive systems used such cities continue to be one of the grea...

description The founding of cities in the north and west of the República Argentina during the first century of Iberian conquest was a complex process of trial, error and articulation of a variety of resources and techniques. Raw materials and constructive systems used such cities continue to be one of the great questions of colonial archeology, since the poor conservation of the architectural record limited its analysis and displaced archaeologists interests towards other evidences, more abundant and available.A systematic survey of documents produced by individuals who traveled through the region during the sixteenth century allowed to detect a limited but interesting set of mentions referring to the use of raw clay in the construction of structures, consistent with archaeological finding in the foundational areas of some of those cities. It is expected that this result will contribute to the development of a more detailed characterization of its early architecture, now disappeared.

Las materias primas y sistemas constructivos utilizados en la arquitectura de tales ciudades continúa siendo uno de los grandes interrogantes de la arqueología colonial, dado que la mala conservación del registro construido limitó su análisis y desplazó el interés de los arqueólogos hacia otras evidencias, más abundantes y disponibles. Un relevamiento sistemático de escritos de individuos que transitaron por la región durante el siglo XVI permitió detectar un acotado pero interesante conjunto de menciones referidas al uso de barro en la construcción de estructuras, dato que resultó consistente con lo observado en el terreno en intervenciones arqueológicas realizadas en las áreas fundacionales de algunas de estas ciudades. Dicho resultado abre la puerta a una caracterización más detallada de la arquitectura temprana de la región, hoy completamente desaparecida.Universidad ORT Uruguay2019-07-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtículo evaluado por paresinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ort.edu.uy/anales-de-investigacion-en-arquitectura/article/view/289810.18861/ania.2019.9.1.2898http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11968/3982Anales de Investigación en Arquitectura; Vol. 9 No. 1 (2019); 7-24Anales de Investigación en Arquitectura; Vol. 9 Núm. 1 (2019); 7-24Anales de Investigación en Arquitectura; v. 9 n. 1 (2019); 7-242301-15132301-150510.18861/ania.2019.9.1reponame:RADinstname:Universidad ORT Uruguayinstacron:Universidad ORTspahttps://revistas.ort.edu.uy/anales-de-investigacion-en-arquitectura/article/view/2898/2937Derechos de autor 2019 Anales de Investigación en Arquitecturahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:rad.ort.edu.uy:20.500.11968/39822026-06-16T04:09:27Z
