We proposed to know local trajectories to understand Inca colonization. For that reason we present examples of different ways that materiality took during historical processes between XI and XVII century on populations that inhabited Angastaco and Molinos valleys, and Calchaqui valley high quebradas in the current Salta province, northwest Argentina , and the spatiality ways that involved and realized that process. It will discuss the role of specific type of archaeological site, the pukara, and its closed relationship with other types of lodging sites, agricultural sites, and rock art at that high quebradas starting with the assumption that pukara not only were consider as refugee , resistance, offensive spaces of native populations during previous period to Inca dominion, called as Regional Development Period for argentine archaeology (1000-1430 AD) and Colonial period but also as milestone on the terrain during inca conquest materializing power through its assessment as sacred place
