  • Late Quaternary Morphodynamics in the Quebrada De Purmamarca, NW Argentina
    Quaternary Science Journal GEOZON SCIENCE MEDIA Volume 59 / Number 1–2 / 2010 / 21–35 / DOI 10.3285/eg.59.1-2.02 ISSN 0424-7116 E&G www.quaternary-science.net Late Quaternary morphodynamics in the Quebrada de Purmamarca, NW Argentina Jan-Hendrik May, Ramiro Daniel Soler Abstract: � This study aims to document the geomorphic, sedimentary and paleopedogenic archives in the Quebrada de Purmamarca.The paleoenvironmental interpretation of these archives and the reconstruction of landscape evolution are mainly based on field observations and geomorphological mapping (May 2008). A series of aggradational terraces mostly consisting of coarse debris- flow deposits are the main focus of this investigation. While the associated cut-and-fill processes are probably the result of an interplay between climatic and tectonic controls, the deposition of the youngest terrace level (> 150 m thickness) may likely be attributed to a drop of the periglacial belt of more than 1000 meters below its modern elevation. For the time after terraceac- cumulation has ceased, the interpretation of alluvial fans, aeolian sand and a well-developed paleosol points to Late Quaternary humidity changes as an important control on landscape evolution. The major phase of downcutting and incision significantly postdates the end of terrace deposition and may have been triggered by markedly increased amounts of monsoonal precipita- tion. Finally, minor humidity changes of possible Holocene age are indicated by paleopedogenic and geomorphic observations on terrace surfaces and along valley slopes.

    UN PUEBLO BOUTIQUE. La construcción de Purmamarca como atractivo turístico Constanza Tommei1 Instituto de Arte Americano F.A.D.U.-U.B.A. Alejandro Benedetti2 Instituto Interdisciplinario Tilcara U.B.A. Introducción A partir de la crisis argentina de 2001, en el país se desarrolló considerablemente el turismo interno, siendo la Quebrada de Humahuaca (provincia de Jujuy) uno de los destinos que más creció, especialmente las localidades de Tilcara, Humahuaca y Purmamarca. En estos lugares, antes de 2001, existía una escasa oferta de servicios turísticos. Desde entonces, se produjo un incremento sostenido del equipamiento hotelero y gastronómico, a la vez que hubo un acondicionamiento general del espacio material con una clara orientación turística. En este contexto, se destaca Purmamarca. En poco tiempo, esta comunidad agropastoril devino en un pueblo boutique, donde se amalgamó su estructura originaria de tipo rural y andina con desarrollos arquitectónicos con una fuerte impronta urbana. Se produjo una fuerte adaptación de sus características y de la oferta de bienes y servicios a los parámetros estéticos y a los deseos de consumo de turistas procedentes, en gran parte, de la capital del país y del extranjero. Los lugares turísticos se van construyendo como resultado de diferentes prácticas materiales y culturales de la sociedad, mediante las cuales se van definiendo y poniendo en valor ciertos elementos, procesos o atributos. Mediante esas prácticas los lugares devienen atractivos para la realización del turismo. A este proceso puede denominarse como de construcción del lugar como atractivo turístico o, utilizando un neologismo, turistificación (Navarro Floria y Vejsberg, 2009). Esto involucra la activación patrimonial, la construcción de un imaginario paisajístico y la publicidad sobre las bondades del lugar, la producción y difusión de ideas e imágenes sobre el lugar, generando el deseo de realizar un viaje hasta 1 [email protected] 2 [email protected] www.jornadashumha.com.ar///[email protected] 1 allí.

  • THE ANDEAN NORTHWEST T E N a L 243 P Y L E N O L
    © Lonely Planet 243 The Andean Northwest In stark contrast with the low, flat, humid northeast, Argentina’s northwest sits lofty, dry and tough beneath the mighty Andes. Nature works its magic here with stone: weird, wonderful and tortured rockscapes are visible throughout, from the imposing formations of the Parque Nacional Talampaya in the far south to the twisted strata of the Quebrada de Cafayate; from the jagged ruggedness of the Valles Calchaquíes to the palette of colors of the Quebrada de Humahuaca. And always to the west is the brooding presence of magnificent peaks. The area has an Andean feel with its traditional handicrafts, Quechua-speaking pockets, coca leaves, llamas, the indigenous heritage of the inhabitants, Inca ruins, and the high, arid puna (Andean highlands) stretching west to Chile and north to Bolivia. The region’s cities were Argentina’s first colonial settlements and have a special appeal. The quiet gentility of Santiago del Estero recalls bygone centuries, Salta’s beauty makes it a favorite stop for travelers, while resolutely urban Tucumán, a sugarcane capital, seems to look firmly to the future. Several popular routes await. From Salta you can take in the cactus sentinels of Parque Nacional Los Cardones on your way to gorgeous Cachi, and then head down through the tradi- tional weaving communities of the Valles Calchaquíes to Cafayate, home of some of Argentina’s best wines. Another route from Salta soars into the mountains to the puna mining settlement of San Antonio de los Cobres, heads north to the spectacular salt plains of the Salinas Grandes, and then down to the visually wondrous and history-filled Quebrada de Humahuaca.

  • Quebrada De Huamahuaca Is a Narrow Valley in Northern Argentina That Runs North-South Some 150 Km
    QUEBRADA DE HUMAHUACA, ARGENTINA: OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS OF TOURISM ON A WORLD HERITAGE CULTURAL ROUTE. ALFREDO CONTI Commission for Scientific Research o f the Province o f Buenos Aires (CIC). ICOMOS Argentina Jerez 514. (1925) Ensenada. Argentina [email protected]. ar Abstract: Quebrada de Huamahuaca is a narrow valley in northern Argentina that runs north-south some 150 Km. It served as communication over 1000 years between the Andean high plateau and southern valleys that take to present Argentinean planes; it is a portion of two significant cultural routes: the pre-Hispanic network of Andean roads (Qhapaq Ñan) and the Spanish Intercontinental Royal Route. On the basis of the tangible and intangible heritage components, the site was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 2003 .The inscription had an impact on tourism, since the number of visitors increased dramatically, along with the provision of infrastructure for visitors. Tourism became an opportunity for development of local communities but, at the same time, it represents a threat for the preservation of the environment and of the heritage assets, including traditional ways of life. This paper introduces the main features of the property and the impact provoked by tourism after the inscription on the World Heritage List. 1. Introduction Quebrada de Humahuaca is a narrow valley some 150 Km long in northern Argentina. It has served as natural communication between the Andean high plateau and the southern valleys over a period of 10000 years; in this sense, Quebrada de Humahuaca is a portion of two significant cultural routes: the Qhapaq Ñan, or main Andean pre­ Hispanic roads system, and the Spanish Intercontinental Royal Route.
