Sumario:The current paper analyzes folkloric material gathered during a national survey in San Luis province -Argentina- in 1921, conducted by the Consejo Nacional de EducaciЧn (National Council of Education). First, we present the collected documents in their intellectual and state administration context, in order to show how the references to indigenous people are part of the folkloric scope. Then, through a thorough study of the files existing in this Province, and aiming to create a local indigenous archive, we analyze how this material may contribute to understand the flow of indigenous memories, practices and identifications, after the ending of the so-called Desert Campaigns.
