MORALEJO, Reinaldo A.; LYNCH, Julieta; COUSO, María G.  e  RAFFINO, Rodolfo A.. Grave Goods As Indicators Of Inka Presence In Aguada Orilla Norte Cementery, Catamarca Province. Intersecciones antropol. [online]. 2010, vol.11, n.2, pp.309-313. ISSN 1850-373X.

This paper describes the grave goods from four burials found at the archaeological site of Aguada Orila Norte Cemetery, Belén, Catamarca). The grave goods belong to the Benjamin Muñiz Barreto collection, housed at the Museum of La Plata. The methodology employed consisted in describing the morphology and decoration of the pieces that make up each set of grave goods, as well as going through the field notes related to the collection. The results of the analyses indicate that three of the four burials are chronologically within the Inka period (AD 1471-1536) and all posses objects that differ in style, belonging therefore to various cultural groups from NOA (Northwestern Argentina). The fourth burial, however, which was located below one of the other three, contains pieces from pre-Inkan cultural groups.
