Diferentes trabajos han dado cuenta de sus características durante ese siglo y especialmente en la región de la Puna de Jujuy. Durante la etapa colonial, esta zona fue sede de una de las mayores encomiendas de la gobernación del Tucumán, cuyos encomenderos eran los principales terratenientes puneños. Es por esta razón que Madrazo (1982) enfatizó la existencia de una estrecha vinculación entre la encomienda de servicio personal con el surgimiento del peonaje por deudas y el sistema de arriendos que se desarrolló en el siglo XIX. Sin embargo, poco conocemos acerca de esta relación en áreas cercanas y con trayectorias históricas similares. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar algunas de las características del acceso a la mano de obra en las propiedades (privadas y comunales) de la quebrada de Humahuaca durante el siglo XVIII como forma de reconstruir la relación entre comunidades indígenas, forasteros y propietarios españoles.

Esta designación colocó al destino en un lugar destacado en el conjunto de los destinos turísticos argentinos. Pero, ¿quiénes, cómo y por qué impulsaron el proceso orientado a alcanzar la distinción para la Quebrada? y ¿qué relación guarda esta designación con la dinámica turística en el lugar? Este trabajo tiene como objetivo indagar en los vínculos que se establecen entre el logro del reconocimiento patrimonial de la Quebrada de Humahuaca y la presencia del turismo en el lugar, teniendo en cuenta el accionar del poder político provincial, impulsor de la inclusión de la Quebrada en la lista de Patrimonio Mundial de la UNESCO.

    Quebrada de Humahuaca, Argentina Quebrada de Humahuaca - Hill of Seven Colours Quebrada de Humahuaca , is a picturesque narrow valley located in north-west Argentina, in the state of Jujuy. The region has always been a crossroads for economic, social and cultural communication. It is skirted by Altiplano in the west and north, the Sub-Andean hills in the east, and the Valles Templados in the south. Situated at the foot of the valley is the village of Maimará, and one of the highlights of the place is the Grande River or Río Grande. The river generally remains dry during the winter, but it is full to the brim during summer. The area attracts a large number of tourists from Argentina as well as other countries of the world.

  • Two New Snuff Trays Found in the Humahuaca Region, Argentina
    Annals of Archaeology Volume 2, Issue 2, 2019, PP 28-33 ISSN:2639-3662 Two New Snuff Trays Found in the Humahuaca Region, Argentina Alicia A. Fernández Distel* Art Space Nicasio Fernández Mar, Argentina *Corresponding Author: Alicia A. Fernández Distel, Art Space Nicasio Fernández Mar, Argentina. Email: [email protected]. ABSTRACT In the province of Jujuy, NW of Argentina, 50 ‘snuff trays’ in relation with the ancient consumption of psychoctive compounds —mainly obtained through unsystematic surveys— have been recorded. The most important archeological sites inspected have been: Cusi Cusi, Casabindo, Doncellas, Rinconada, Santa Catalina, Pucara de Tilcara, Juella, and Cienaga Grande. In this article we describe two snuff trays, hitherto unknown, included in the Torres Aparicio’s private collection in Humahuaca. They were apparently obtained from the archaeological site Peñas Blancas, together with a lot of significant elements also made of wood. One of the trays has little men figures carved in its handle. In the other, the handle presents a hollow central figure that can be associated to a bird (may be a condor).

Entre los campesinos de la puna, del valle Calchaquí y de la Quebrada de Humahuaca los reclamos por mejores derechos sobre la propiedad de la tierra constituyen un problema de difícil y compleja resolución. Estudiar estas disputas en su densidad histórica reviste, por lo tanto, suma importancia y de allí la relevancia de este libro que presenta un conjunto de artículos que contribuyen decididamente al abordaje de esta problemática central en los estudios de historia y antropología rural latinoamericana, sobre la cual realizara valiosos aportes Guillermo Madrazo, un agudo y prolífico investigador que falleciera hace diez años, cuyos trabajos, tal como ambas compiladoras afirman “han sido claves en la reconstrucción de las estructuras socioeconómicas históricas de la Provincia de Jujuy”.
