Summary
Resumen: la finalidad de este artículo es contribuir al conocimiento sobre la cronología de la expansión incaica en el Collasuyu, mediante el análisis de todas las dataciones radiocarbónicas publicadas de sitios incaicos en Argentina. Este es el primer estudio global sobre la cronología inca en Argentina, y es la primera vez que las fechas son clasificadas y utilizadas según su nivel de información, contexto y confiabilidad. For Collasuyu, the southern region of the empire, the idea of a very rapid, homogeneous, and late expansion dating back to the reign of Topa Inca Yupanqui, after 1471 AD prevailed for several decades. This vision was based on a documentary analysis carried out during the mid-20th century by Rowe (1945). With the advancement of studies and dating techniques, archaeologists began to question this chronology
