KUFFER, Claudio Francisco. Marriage preferences in Tulumba (Cordoba). First third of the 20th century. Rev Arg Antrop Biol [online]. 2020, vol.22, n.1, pp.11-12. ISSN 1514-7991.  http://dx.doi.org/10.24215/18536387e014.

The main aim of this work has been to compare the first three decades of the 20th century in terms of marital preferences in Parroquia District, which belongs to Tulumba Department (administrative subdivision), located in the north of Cordoba (Argentina). The sources consulted were birth certificates from 1901 to 1930, and the main methods used were isonymy and repeated pairs. No notorious differences were observed among the decades, with the second one (1911-1920) showing, in comparison, more differences, having higher random and total inbreeding and a minimum intra-population relationship. In turn, the frequency of marriages among lineages was very high in all cases. The results of the second decade were understood as a palliative against newcomers, but even more so against the effect of increasing emigration to the Pampean region, at least until the beginning of the First World War. In turn, diminished relationship could have been due to some short-distance, but also transoceanic, immigration. In sum, despite the aforementioned, similarities within the three decades are worth highlighting: these do not reflect profound changes in the behavior of the married population. The latter could be expected in the Pampean region of the same period, which had a conspicuous productive development and an important demographic increase, particularly through immigration.
