Sumario:Between 1885 and 1930, after the military campaigns against the indigenous peoples, the north of the current province of La Pampa began to be occupied by settlements related to rural exploitation: estancias, colonies, towns and commercial settlements. Since 2008 we are studying this problem that is part of the so-called rural archeology. In this paper we will present the preliminary advances in the study of the archeological site “La Estrella” (1884-1946) located in the vicinity of Parera (Department of Rancul, province of La Pampa). This site is a pulpería that was at an intersection of roads that linked it with various types of settlements (ranches, stalls and other stores) forming a constituent part of the recent rural landscape. In the 2018 archeological campaign the extension of the site`s area was determined, the surface materials were systematically collected and 14 surveys diggings were made. This paper presents the analysis of historical maps through the GIS, the field methodology used and the site formation processes that affected the materials recovered in the surveys diggings.
