Figure 3. República Argentina: Colonia Conesa, Patagonia, Buenos Aires, Apr. 1884, Archivo General de la Nación, Buenos Aires, fondo Lorenzo Vintter, leg. 1226. This April 1884 map of Conesa was created by the Central Land and Colonies Office, with text in Spanish, Italian, French, and English (see right image) advertising free land to immigrant settlers. The map erases the history and present of Indigenous settlement in the region, characterizing the land as empty by offering land to the “25 foremost families” to settle there.

Figure 1. Map of Argentina, designed from base map Líneas de fronteras y Conquista del Desierto, 1744–1883: Trazado de acuerdo a los datos históricos de la época e impreso en color en Buenos Aires en 1934 por Saint Hermanos SA, AGN, colección Mapoteca, código AR-AGN-MAP01-I-4, accessed online at https://www.argentina.gob.ar/sites/default/files/1._expansion_hacia_la_patagonia.pdf. The dotted line represents the Ríos Negro and Neuquén. This was the frontier line proposed in the 1867 frontier law, and it also represents the limits of the territory ostensibly conquered during Roca's 1879 campaigns. The star represents the location of Colonia General Conesa. Note its location directly on the military frontier line. The black triangle to the northeast of Conesa is the approximate location of the Catrieleros' tolderías in Arroyo Nievas, where they lived from the 1830s until 1875 (see also figure 2).
