description The old cartography in the Pampas area, basically constituted by geographical maps of a military nature from the 19th century and the survey plans drawn up by the first surveyors, constitutes a profuse source of data about the location of place names of indigenous origin. On the other hand, a careful reading of the diaries of the military expeditions carried out in 1879 reveals the presence of numerous rankülche toponyms not recorded in the first measurements. It also reveals the existence of historical errors in the location of certain places, which are maintained to the present, as is the case of Poitahué. Simultaneous work with old maps, survey charts, cartography from the IGN (National Geographic Institute), satellite images and travel diaries of the soldiers who made up the expeditionary column commanded by Colonel Eduardo Racedo, allow a good approximation to elucidate the location of several places of historical and archaeological interest. Some of these places had been wrongly mapped and others were not on any map. An exhaustive etymological analysis is carried out for each place name, taking into account the existence of the root, its semantic suitability, documentary compatibility, linguistic viability and also an observation of the place to determine if the root or etym responds to any current or past characteristic. . The rescue of this rankülche toponymic corpus and its location may be important to clarify historical and geographical aspects of this ethnic group, which may contribute to expanding their ancestral knowledge and promoting the strengthening of their identity.

Por otro lado, la cuidadosa lectura de los diarios de las expediciones militares realizadas en 1879, revela la presencia de numerosos topónimos rankülches no consignados en las primeras mensuras. Asimismo devela la exis- tencia de errores históricos en la ubicación de ciertos parajes, que se mantienen hasta el presente, como es el caso de Poitahué. El trabajo simultáneo con los mapas antiguos, cartas de mensura, cartografía del IGN (Instituto Geográfico Nacional), imágenes satelitales y diarios de viaje de los militares que integra- ron la columna expedicionaria comandada por el coronel Eduardo Racedo, permiten dilucidar con buena aproximación la localización de varios parajes de interés histórico y arqueológico. Algunos de estos lu gares habían sido cartografiados erróneamente y otros no estaban en ningún mapa. Para cada topónimo se realiza un exhaustivo análisis etimológico, teniendo en cuenta la existencia de la raíz, su idoneidad semántica, la compatibilidad documental, la viabilidad lingüística y también una observación del paraje para determinar si la raíz o étimo responde a alguna característica actual o pasada. El rescate de este cor- pus toponímico rankülche y su ubicación, puede ser de importancia para esclarecer aspectos históricos y geográficos de esta etnia, que puedan contribuir en ampliar sus conocimientos ancestrales y promover el fortalecimiento de su identidad.         A antiga cartografia da região dos Pampas, constituída basicamente por mapas geográficos de cunho militar do século XIX e pelos planos de levantamento elaborados pelos primeiros agrimensores, constitui uma fonte profusa de dados sobre a localização de topônimos de origem indígena. Por outro lado, uma leitura atenta dos diários das expedições militares realizadas em 1879 revela a presença de numerosos topônimos de rankülche não registrados nas primeiras medições. Revela também a existência de erros históricos na localização de determinados lugares, que se mantêm até hoje, como é o caso de Poitahué. Trabalhos simultâneos com mapas antigos, cartas de levantamento, cartografia do IGN (Instituto Geográfico Nacional), imagens de satélite e diários de viagem dos militares que compunham a coluna expedicionária comandada pelo Coronel Eduardo Racedo, permitem uma boa aproximação para elucidar a localização de diversos lugares de interesse histórico e arqueológico. Alguns desses lugares foram mapeados erroneamente e outros não estavam em nenhum mapa. É realizada uma exaustiva análise etimológica para cada topónimo, tendo em conta a existência da raiz, a sua idoneidade semântica, compatibilidade documental, viabilidade linguística e também uma observação do lugar para determinar se a raiz ou etim responde a qualquer actual ou passado característica. . O resgate desse corpus toponímico rankülche e sua localização podem ser importantes para esclarecer aspectos históricos e geográficos dessa etnia, que podem contribuir para ampliar seus conhecimentos ancestrais e promover o fortalecimento de sua identidade. 2022-03-31 2024-08-02T01:29:19Z 2024-08-02T01:29:19Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares https://teoriaypracticaah.unr.edu.ar/index.php/tpahl/article/view/155 10.35305/tpahl.v3i1.155 https://suquia.ffyh.unc.edu.ar/handle/suquia/175867 spa https://teoriaypracticaah.unr.edu.ar/index.php/tpahl/article/view/155/150 application/pdf Centro de Estudios de Arqueología Histórica (CEAH) de la Universidad Nacional de Rosario Teoría y Práctica de la Arqueología Histórica Latinoamericana; Vol. 3 Núm. 1 (2022): Teoría y Práctica de la Arqueología Histórica Latinoamericana Documentos de Trabajo; 21 - 48 2591-2801 2250-866X
