Spatial arrangements of settlements corresponding to the central third or Quilmes Mountain range during the Regional Developments and Inca Periods (Yocavil Valley-Tucumán)

In this paper we present the analysis of the location of archaeological settlements from Late (900-1480 DC) and Inca (1480-1535 DC) periods in Tucuman portion of the Quilmes Ranges, and its relationship with the global climatic changes suffered during those times. Methodologically, we made the geomo...

Methodologically, we made the geomorpho-logical photointerpretation of the study area. Late sites wereidentified by aerophotointerpretation.

Finally, archaeological site distribution was established and associated with previously knownclimatic variations. Late (900-1480 AC) and Inca (1480-1535 AC) settlements were arranged over slopes, secondary fluvial valleys, fluvio-alluvial fans and bottom valleys. With the Medieval Climatic Anomaly, dry weather would had pushed the concentration of population in the apex ofthe fans and secondary fluvial valleys with water availability for quotidian activities and agriculture, nevertheless middle and distal parts of the fans could have still been used with artificial irrigation, and later by wet conditions of Little Ice Age. Se presenta el análisis de la ubicación de los asentamientos arqueológicos del Período Tardío (900-1480 DC) e Inca (1480-1535 DC) en la porción tucumana de la sierra de Quilmes, y su relación con los cambios climáticos globales acaecidos durante dichos tiempos. Metodológicamente, se fotointerpretó la geomorfo-logía del área de estudio. Se identificaron los sitios tardíos por aerofotointerpretación y luego se efectuó prospección pedestre con recolección de material superficial. Se determinaron distinciones cronológicas relativas utilizando indicadores cerámicos y arquitectónicos conocidos para la región. Finalmente se estable-ció la distribución espacial de los sitios, la que fue asociada a las variaciones paleoclimáticas conocidas. Los asentamientos de los períodos Tardío e Inca se distribuyeron en la ladera, valles fluviales secundarios, aba-nicos fluvio-aluviales y fondo de valle. Con la Anomalía Climática Medieval, la aridización habría impulsado la concentración poblacional en los ápices de los abanicos y valles fluviales secundarios con disponibilidad de agua para uso cotidiano y agricultura, pero no habría imposibilitado la ocupación agraria hacia las partes medias y distales de los abanicos, la que pudo ser favorecida por las redes distributivas naturales de estas geoformas y por canales artificiales, y más tarde por las condiciones más húmedas de la Pequeña Edad de Hielo.
