NAGY, Mariano. Memorias, historias de vida y trayectorias indígenas en la provincia de Buenos Aires. Mem. am. [online]. 2017, vol.25, n.2, pp.168-186. ISSN 1851-3751.

The article analyzes a series of interviews with indigenous people from urban and rural areas of Buenos Aires in order to recover and systematize experiences and trajectories enabling the construction of a corpus centered on what it means to be “indigenous” in a province with lots of aboriginals but, at the same time, seen as a territory “without Indians”. In order to contribute to a general history of the original population in the district we atempt to reconstruct different Indian histories from present to past. Thus, the paper presents several themes such as: the reconstruction and transmission of family and/or community history, the relation of these events to the 19^th and 20^th centuries historical processes, the development of migratory trajectories and/or establishment in places where they live and the self-identification feeling.
