Abstract
FARBERMAN, Judith. The development of a frontier region. Santiago del Estero, Tucumán and Chaco from the late pre hispanic period to the mid- XVIIIth century. Rev. Mus. Antropol. [online]. 2016, vol.9, n.2, pp.187-198. ISSN 1852-060X.
The article focuses on the construction of a frontier area on the Salado river over the span of three centuries. It points out that within the borderlands of Santiago del Estero this process was belated no attacks are known before 1685 and that these times of relative peace could have been in part related to the brokering role of the mataraes - a tonocote group `encomendado' by the elite of Concepción del Bermejo and moved to the Salado river in 1650. Because of its relations with the native inland populations first and with the posterior specialization of ethnic soldiers later on, the pueblo de indios of Matará had a central role in the protection of the borderland of Santiago del Estero during the XVIIth and XIXth centuries.
