Introduction and objectives: Earthen construction techniques have great relevance for the production of architecture in the Andean area. They involve a set of diverse practices and knowledge, integrated into a building culture that is inseparable from other aspects of social life. Among the raw materials of mineral, animal or vegetable origin and the multiple resolutions for each part of the house, wood is fundamental for the structure of the ceiling. The main wooden vegetable resources of the region, queñoa (Polylepis tomentella) and especially cardon (Trichocereus atacamensis) play a leading role. The aim of the present work is to study queñoa and cardon wood in contemporary architecture.
M&M: The research was conducted in the department of Susques, Jujuy, using a qualitative ethnobotany approach, based on ethnographic methodology. We work permanently with 15 local collaborators, reaching around 100 persons in group instances.
Results: Show that the use of these woods has decreased in recent years, but their relevance in local construction practices has not declined in the accounts of the villagers. They also show that the causes include provincial laws prohibiting their use, the shorter time spent in the field resulting in the interruption of wood harvesting and the introduction of materials from the lowlands.
Conclusion: The conservation of the architectural heritage implies the continuity of certain practices and involves specific materialities, its identification and knowledge allow its appreciation and the search for strategies for its permanence. |

Introducción: Las técnicas de construcción con tierra tuvieron una alta relevancia para la producción de la arquitectura en toda el área andina. Se trata de un conjunto de prácticas y saberes diversos, integrado en una cultura constructiva indisociable de otros aspectos de la vida social. Dentro de las materias primas de origen mineral, animal o vegetal y de múltiples resoluciones para cada parte de la casa, la madera es fundamental para la estructura de la cubierta. Los principales recursos vegetables maderables de la región, la queñoa (Polylepis tomentella) y especialmente el cardón (Trichocereus atacamensis) tienen un rol protagónico. El objetivo fue estudiar la vigencia de su uso en las arquitecturas actuales. M&M: El trabajo se desarrolló en el departamento de Susques, Jujuy, desde el enfoque de la etnobotánica cualitativa, utilizando principalmente la metodología etnográfica. Se trabajó con 15 colaboradores locales, alcanzando las 100 personas en instancias grupales. Resultados: Evidencian que el uso de estas maderas ha disminuido en los últimos años, pero su relevancia no ha perdido vigencia en el relato de los pobladores. Así mismo, demuestran que entre las causas se entremezclan leyes provinciales que prohíben su uso, menor tiempo de permanencia en el campo resultando en la interrupción de la recolección de madera y la introducción de materiales provenientes de tierras bajas. Conclusión: La conservación del patrimonio arquitectónico implica la continuidad de ciertas prácticas e involucra materialidades específicas, su identificación y conocimiento permite su valoración y la búsqueda de estrategias para su permanencia.
