The continuation of war by other means. Pulares and Calchaquies in 17th century silver mines. Nevado de Acay, Salta, Argentina

This paper analyzes the mining activities at the Nevado de Acay (Salta, Argentina) between 1655 and 1658. The study is of interest because it shows the employment of the mining mita, activity explicitly forbidden at the time. We also analyze the elevation of the Acay to mining district and its owner...

The study is of interest because it shows the employment of the mining mita, activity explicitly forbidden at the time. We also analyze the elevation of the Acay to mining district and its owner to the position of Mayor of Mines. The origin of the mitayos is of interest because they came from encomiendas of the valleys of Calchaquí and Lerma. The rebellious outbreak that destroyed the mining facilities in 1658 came from one of these towns of reduction as well, showing that the Calchaquí/Pular dichotomization corresponded to the political situation created by the Spanish domination. For the future, we propose an interdisciplinary approach -between archeology and history- in order to understand the social processes undergone by these groups, with two fundamental milestones such as the Inca and the Spanish conquests. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la explotación minera en el Nevado de Acay (Salta, Argentina) producida entre 1655 y 1658. El estudio es de interés pues muestra el empleo de la mita minera, actividad expresamente prohibida en la época. Se analiza además la elevación del Acay a distrito minero y la de su propietario al cargo de Alcalde de Minas. El origen de los mitayos es también de interés al provenir de encomiendas de los valles de Calchaquí y Lerma. Desde uno de estos pueblos de reducción saldrá la avanzada rebelde que destruirá el ingenio minero en 1658, mostrando que la dicotomización calchaquí/pular respondió a la situación política ante el dominio español. Se plantea a futuro la interdisciplina -entre la arqueología y la historia- para comprender los procesos sociales atravesados por estos grupos, con dos hitos fundamentales como la conquista incaica y la española. O objetivo deste artigo é analisar a exploração mineira no Nevado de Acay (Salta, Argentina) entre 1655 e 1658. Este estudo é interessante porque demonstra o uso da mita mineira, uma atividade expressamente proibida na época. Também analisa a elevação de Acay a distrito mineiro e a elevação do seu proprietário ao cargo de Prefeito de Minas. A origem dos mitayos também é interessante, pois provêm de encomiendas nos vales Calchaquí e Lerma. O avanço rebelde que destruiu a indústria mineira em 1658 emergiu de uma dessas aldeias de redução, demonstrando que a dicotomização Calchaquí/Pular respondeu à situação política sob o domínio espanhol. A abordagem interdisciplinar -entre arqueologia e história- é proposta para o futuro, a fim de compreender os processos sociais vivenciados por esses grupos, com dois marcos fundamentais: as conquistas incas e espanholas. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/MA/article/view/7166 10.34096/mace.v27i2.7370 spa Sección Etnohistoria, Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas.
