| description |
The tools based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS) allow us to explore the role that various environmental variables have in different human practices carried out through space, such as movement and visibility. The Inca spatiality was guided by certain political and religious rules that, in some way, could materialize in the landscape. This spatial structure made it possible to organize and regulate visibility and movement, which gave certain spaces or structures greater staging. The aim of this paper is to analyze the relationship between mobility and visibility in the Inca site El Shincal de Quimivil, located in Londres, province of Catamarca, Northwest Argentina. We understand mobility as the ability to move through a landscape and visual landscape as the visual representation generated by (or associated with) a specific spatial configuration. A GIS toolkit was used for this analysis, allowing us to measure and quantify the different mobility paths and visual basins within the site. The results obtained have shown that both mobility and visibility register a heterogeneous distribution directly related to the topographical and architectural characteristics of the site. |

Las herramientas basadas en Sistemas de Información Geográfica (SIG) permiten explorar el rol que tienen diversas variables ambientales en diferentes prácticas humanas realizadas a través del espacio, como el movimiento y la visibilidad. La espacialidad incaica estuvo pautada bajo determinados cánones políticos y religiosos que, de algún modo, podían materializarse en el paisaje. Esta estructura espacial permitía organizar y regular la visibilidad y el desplazamiento, lo que otorgaba mayor escenificación a ciertos espacios o estructuras. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la relación existente entre la movilidad y la visibilidad del sitio inca El Shincal de Quimivil, ubicado en la localidad de Londres, provincia de Catamarca, Noroeste argentino. Entendemos por movilidad a la capacidad de moverse a través de un paisaje y por paisaje visual a la representación visual generada por (o asociada con) una configuración espacial específica. Para este análisis se utilizó un paquete de herramientas SIG que nos permitió medir y cuantificar los diferentes circuitos de movilidad y cuencas visuales dentro del sitio. Los resultados obtenidos han demostrado que tanto la movilidad como la visibilidad registran una distribución heterogénea directamente relacionada con las características topográficas y arquitectónicas del sitio.

A espacialidade inca foi governada por certos cânones políticos e religiosos que, de alguma forma, puderam ser materializados na paisagem. Esta estrutura espacial permitiu organizar e regular a visibilidade e o movimento, o que deu a certos espaços ou estruturas uma maior encenação. O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar a relação entre mobilidade e visibilidade no local inca de El Shincal de Quimivil, localizado na cidade de Londres, na província de Catamarca, noroeste da Argentina. Entendemos a mobilidade como a capacidade de mover-se através de uma paisagem e paisagem visual como a representação visual gerada por (ou associada a) uma configuração espacial específica. Para esta análise, usamos um conjunto de ferramentas SIG que nos permitiu medir e quantificar os diferentes circuitos de mobilidade e bacias visuais dentro do local. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que tanto a mobilidade quanto a visibilidade registram uma distribuição heterogênea diretamente relacionada às características topográficas e arquitetônicas do site.
