Es poco lo que se ha investigado en la arqueología argentina sobre los materiales y técnicas empleadas en las provincias del oeste del país durante el periodo colonial. En el caso de la ciudad de San Juan, que durante más de dos siglos formó parte de la Gobernación de Chile, son contados los antecedentes de análisis directo de edificios o restos de edificios construidos en dicho periodo. Es por ello que se estimó de interés el estudio del edificio del Museo y Biblioteca Casa Natal de Sarmiento desde una perspectiva arqueológica, dado que se trata de uno de los pocos edificios coloniales tardíos que aún permanecen en pie en la ciudad. El presente artículo da cuenta de los resultados preliminares obtenidos durante una revisión de fuentes documentales destinada a identificar menciones relativas a las materias primas, técnicas y sistemas utilizados en la construcción de la casa y en las sucesivas reformas de las que fue objeto. La información recuperada fue utilizada para generar una primera aproximación hipotética a la materialidad de la vivienda en tres periodos claves de su historia Universidad ORT Uruguay 2020-12-15 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo evaluado por pares application/pdf https://revistas.ort.edu.uy/anales-de-investigacion-en-arquitectura/article/view/2968 10.18861/ania.2020.10.1.2968 Anales de Investigación en Arquitectura; Vol. 10 No. 1 (2020); 47 - 64 Anales de Investigación en Arquitectura; Vol. 10 Núm. 1 (2020); 47 - 64 Anales de Investigación en Arquitectura; v. 10 n. 1 (2020); 47 - 64 2301-1513 2301-1505 10.18861/ania.2020.10.1 spa https://revistas.ort.edu.uy/anales-de-investigacion-en-arquitectura/article/view/2968/3286 Derechos de autor 2020 Anales de Investigación en Arquitectura https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0
