VACCA, Laura Celina. Aportes para la construcción de un archivo indígena local: la Encuesta Nacional de Folklore en la provincia de San Luis, Argentina, 1921. Mem. am. [online]. 2018, vol.26, n.1, pp.77-93. ISSN 1851-3751.

The current paper analyzes folkloric material gathered during a national survey in San Luis province -Argentina- in 1921, conducted by the Consejo Nacional de Educación (National Council of Education). First, we present the collected documents in their intellectual and state administration context, in order to show how the references to indigenous people are part of the folkloricscope. Then, through a thorough study of the files existing in this Province, and aiming to create a local indigenous archive, we analyze how this material may contribute to understand the flow of indigenous memories, practices and identifcations, after the ending of the so-called Desert Campaigns.
