The most northern engravings of the West Tinogasteño and its connection with the South Puna (Catamarca, Argentina)

Sumario:  The work done so far indicated that in the region of Fiambalá the location of rock art, engraved and painted, was restricted to different altitudinal levels of the mesothermal valley (1.400-2.000 m) and the ravines of the western foothills (2.400-3.500 m). We present here a new area of emplacement located on the west side of La Herradura in the Cordillera de San Buenaventura called Las Papas (I, II and III) and Piedra Grande. Throughout this paper we discuss the possibility that these manifestations are marking natural communication paths with the southern Puna, as the Cordillera de San Buenaventura is the natural boundary between the departments of Tinogasta and Antofagasta de la Sierra. In this line it is posited, as a hypothesis and because of the thematic repertoires documented in these two sites, that the west of La Herradura would have had a deeper relationship towards the north, to the southern Puna, than with the southern area of our region
