Resumen
POLITIS, Gustavo G.. The archaeological implications of the Diary of Pero Lopes de Souza (1531) during his trip to the La Plata River and to the Lower Delta of the Paraná River. Rev. Mus. Antropol. [online]. 2014, vol.7, n.2, pp.00-00. ISSN 1852-060X.
Abstract In this paper the diary of the Portuguese explorer Pero Lopes de Sousa to the La Plata River and to the Lower Delta of the Paraná River is analyzed from a historical and archaeological perspective. This narrative is the only document written in real time from a direct witness of the accounts he described. Therefore it is a unique high-quality source to know about the early times of the European Conquest to the La Plata River and to approach the study of the indigenous people of the area at the beginning of the XVI Century. In this article, the observations and comments from Lopes de Souza are summarized and analyzed within the context of the history of the first half of the XVI Century and in the light of the recent archaeological investigations.
