This is an ecotone and environmental threshold that occurs in this part of Jujuy Province, Argentina. It is presented here a synthesis of the project´s general framework, the scales of analysis (spatial and temporal) and the main points of the theoretical and methodological approaches employed. A discussion about the characteristics of the site, its geomorphology, the sectors into which it is divided, and the archaeological evidence recovered is also presented. The different types of findings and their analyses are discussed, focusing on the site´s lower sector, where the evidence recovered provides valuable information about economic and ritual practices from around 1000 BP. On the basis of these studies and the radiocarbon dates obtained, a general discussion about the articulation of this site and others studied within the same project is presented. The relevance of this site within the context of the archaeology of the Quebrada de Humahuaca and the Jujuy Puna is assessed by comparing and integrating the site´s evidence with that from contemporary sites in those two geo-environmental zones. Este trabajo presenta los resultados de los estudios arqueológicos llevados a cabo en el sitio Casas Grandes, realizados dentro de un proyecto de investigación regional que abarca las nacientes de la Quebrada de Humahuaca en su intersección con la Puna, ecotono y umbral geo-ambiental que ocurre en este sector de la Provincia de Jujuy, Argentina. Se expone aquí una síntesis del marco general del proyecto, las escalas de análisis (espacial y temporal) así como los lineamientos teórico/metodológicos del mismo. Luego se presentan las características del sitio, su geomorfología, sus sectores y la evidencia arqueológica encontrada en cada uno de ellos. A su vez, se describen los distintos tipos hallazgos realizados y los resultados de sus respectivos análisis, focalizando en el sector bajo del sitio, donde la evidencia hallada aporta excepcional información sobre prácticas económicas y rituales realizadas en torno a los 1000 años antes del presente. En base a estos estudios y a los fechados radiocarbónicos obtenidos se presenta una discusión general sobre la articulación de este sitio con otros estudiados dentro del mismo proyecto, así como su importancia en el contexto de la arqueología de Quebrada y Puna jujeña, a partir de su comparación e integración con la evidencia proveniente de otros sitios con ocupaciones humanas contemporáneas localizados en estos dos geo-ambientes.
