Identification of Archaeological Sites from the Regional Development Period (10th to 15th Centuries A.D.) in the Montane Forest of Tucuman: Anfama Basin (Tafí Viejo). Rev. Mus. Antropol.

Abstract The aim of this work is to present/report the advances made towards the identification of archaeological sites from the Regional Development Period (10th to 15th centuries A.D.) in the Anfama valley (Tafí Viejo, Tucumán), where no previous records of occupations during this period have been found. The activities developed combined both work with members of the community and archaeological intervention, including the collection of oral testimonies from the inhabitants, the record of pieces possessed by them, pedestrian surveys, compass and measuring tape mapping corrected through aerial images captured by drones, and exploratory surveys. We consider that these data gathered through different methodologies contribute to promoting the debate on the nature of the settlements of the first half of the second millennium A.D. on the eastern foothills of the Cumbres Calchaquíes.
