Abstract

The article analyzes the demographic structure of the Sumampa department, in southern Santiago del Estero, based on the First National Census of 1869, paying special attention to the nomenclature of occupations. The analysis reveals several paradoxes, including a feminized structure very similar to that of other departments in Santiago—despite the department's specialization in livestock—, the predominance of domestic textile production, and farmers in a context of traditional large estates. It also delves into unraveling the meaning behind the census's occupational categories, which seem to mask relationships of dependence and subordination (agregaduría).
