Sumario:This short chapter, which will be part of our next book "Los Comechingones", is really an outline for a history of the discovery and conquest of the Cordoba territory. It is written to serve the purposes of that book, hence the need to have incorporated what refers to the discovery of the Conlara Valley, largely belonging today to the province of San Luis, and to circumscribe it only to the sixteenth century. We consider three discovering currents: the one from the East, the one from the North and the one from the West. Most of these currents were in search of the fabulous country of the Caesars, uncertain and shifting like the spirit of the conquerors. But for all of them, Cordoba was only a landmark; either for the Caesars or for the Rio de la Plata.
