Abstract

A geoinformatic and spatial analysis of the Quebrada de los Arrieros area is herein presented; we detail the methodology used for the construction of a Geographic Information System which allowed us in turn to reconstruct a network of roads and archaeological structures. Results are described in respect of the elements that compose the network, their associations and functionality. Finally, we discuss the thematic and methodological contributions of this type of analysis.
