Spatial mobility, interaction and social formations in the South Andes. The case of Isluga and the Altiplano-Precordillera system

 In this paper we state that the practices of spatial mobility of the pastoralists community from Isluga (Chilean Altiplano, precordillera of Tarapaca region) could represent a transformed continuity regarding to pre-Hispanic mobility patterns and exchange. Ethnographic background information regard...

Las prácticas de movilidad espacial de los pastores de la comunidad de Isluga (Altiplano chileno, precordillera de la región de Tarapacá) podrían representar una continuidad transformada respecto de patrones de movilidad e intercambio prehispánicos. Se presentan antecedentes etnográficos referidos a prácticas de pastoreo en la actualidad, como también indicadores respecto de estas dinámicas para la segunda mitad del siglo pasado. Los antecedentes etnohistóricos, sustentados en documentos coloniales tempranos y tardíos, sugieren la existencia de dinámicas de interacción entre grupos étnicos alto andinos y grupos étnicos locales en las quebradas, valles y costas. En este artículo se pone de manifiesto la necesidad de llevar adelante investigaciones etnoarqueológicas que, en conjunto con datos etnohistóricos, permitan sostener con mayor fidelidad que las dinámicas de movilidad e intercambio que desarrollan los pastores de Isluga en la actualidad representan ciertamente prácticas de continuidad constitutivas de la organización social y espacial andina.
