Resumen
El estudio arqueológico sistemático de dos emplazamientos mineros localizados en el centro oeste de Argentina permite ahondar en el conocimiento de las condiciones de vida de sus habitantes. Aquí se aborda un análisis arquitectónico comparado de edificios que funcionaron entre mediados de siglo XIX e inicios del siglo XX con diferentes fines extractivos (oro, plata y esquisto bituminoso) con una población residente constituida por familias y/o grupos de trabajadores. Por medio de análisis constructivos y sintácticos del espacio, de escasa aplicación en la región, proponemos que la arquitectura en los emplazamientos mineros funcionó como un objeto activo en las estrategias de control de sus habitantes, ya que se configuró un patrón arquitectónico asimilable al de ?tipo cuartel? el cual permitía el control de los accesos y caminos del lugar, aumentando el aislamiento y la segmentación de los espacios.
The systematic archaeological study of two mining sites located in the central west of Argentina allows to know the living conditions of mining peoples. Here we discuss a comparative architectural analysis of buildings that operated between the middle 19th and early 20th centuries, within mining plans with different extractive purposes (silver, gold and schist). They maintained a resident population consisting of families or groups of workers. Through constructive and syntactic analyzes of space, with very little application in the region, we propose that the architecture in the mining sites functioned as an active object and a key input in the control strategies of its inhabitants. These were configured architecturally and spatially according to the economic interests of the owners of the means of production, who had the exploitation rights and therefore designed an architectural pattern “barracks type”, since it allowed the control of the accesses and roads of the place, increasing the enclosure, isolation and the segmentation of the spaces.
