Resumen:
The interpretation of the meanings of the constructed space plays an important role in order to understand how a certain society might  have been structured in the past.  This paper presents the colony of Floridablanca (Patagonia, 18th century), and through this case we analyze the way in which the different discourse levels are articulated in the construction of the colony spaces according to the ideal model of a social order based on the principles of Spanish Enlightenment.  We particularly focused on the convergence and divergence between the material world and the narratives referring to such spaces created during the existence of the colony.  Our approach to this issue involved the work of an interdisciplinary team which means the inclusion and interpretation of data coming from history, archaeology and geophysics. The analyses of narratives and material construction show how the discourse on the social organization of Floridablanca articulates convergence and divergence from these planes in different ways for different sectors of the colony studied along the three lines of evidence.
