IGARETA, Ana. Early Colonial Urbanism in Republica Argentina: Archaeological Contributions. Trab. soc. [online]. 2010, n.15, pp.7-17. ISSN 1514-6871.

Argentine archaeology traditionally has been focused on the analysis of prehistoric societies; just recently and in a smaller proportion historical problems and sites captured their attention. Urban development during the colonial period was a subject little boarded by the archaeologists, despite the intensive analysis other historical disciplines dedicated to the theme. Recent archaeological investigations evidenced the great informative potential of cities created and destroyed during the century XVI, whose morphology clearly diverged from the classic regular model and had significant influence in the later structuring of the urban system.

Palabras clave : Historical archaeology; Colonial cities.
