MARTINEZ, Bárbara. Cartografías en tránsito: mapas orales y memoria social en El Cajón (Catamarca, Argentina). Runa [online]. 2014, vol.35, n.1, pp.77-92. ISSN 1851-9628.

In this work I present and explore the way in which space expresses milestones of social memory among inhabitants of El Cajón, Catamarca, Argentina, resulting in a highly dynamic product rather than an immutable plane. Particularly, I analyze how local cartographic imagination is conveyed through true oral maps in which the territory condenses notions regarding history, geography, myths and cultural practices. The inquiry, triggered as a consequence of ethnographic attempts to make a map with local dwellers, attempts to examine the way in which memory unfolds in the territory, as well as to reflect on the methodological reformulations that the cartographic co-construction process entailed.
