The forms of denominating people play a key role in the social structure, because name and family name confers identity, uniqueness, and permit to point out the family or linage to which the bearer belongs to. In this work, the antroponyms of the casabindos, a aborigin group from the jujenean Puna (Argentina), are used. Based on the information recorded in a series of population archives, the tracking of the casabindos and their descendents was done for a period of over 400 years, allowing the analysis of the characteristics of the nominative system, and the population structure. The main sources for this work correspond to a document about the baptism of the Casabindo cacique, dating back to the 16th century; the oldest registry from the casabindos and cochinocas, from midst of the 17th century; a registry of tax payers of Casabindo dated on 1688; two population records from the end of the 18th century; the Second National Census from the Argentine Republic done on 1895; and the electoral register from 1982 and 2001. The origin (autochthonous or foreign), the frequency, the persistence of the denomination forms, and their transformation between 1557 and 2001 was analyzed in this work. The demogenetic structure was estimated by means of isonymy parameters that indicated consanguinity, isolation, sedentarism, and migration. These data were related with demographic information such as population size, population distribution by age, sex, marital status, and family composition. The obtained results allowed knowing a series of antroponyms used in Casabindo during pre-Hispanic times. These antroponyms underwent a selective process, in which native male names were transformed into family names, while native female names disappeared. The evolution of the nominative system during the XVI century in Casabindo is characterized by the presence autochthonous names exclusively. They could either be single or compound names, unique for each sex, and they could change from generation to generation. The 17th century population exhibit different antroponyms for males and females, where most of them have a Spanish first name given at the baptism, as well as a second native name. On the other hand, a very small proportion of the population has both first and second names from Spaniard origin. The transmission of a second name from one generation to the following generation, with parallel systems of father-son and mother-daughter transmission, begun at the end of the 17th century. Conversely, at the 18th century, the entire population presents a first Spaniard name and a second native name. The second name is derived from native male names of the previous centuries. The paternal second name, once transformed in family name, is then transmitted to the descendants. It has been observed that 90% of the population has native names until the end of the 18th century. Between 1895 and 2001 the proportion of native surnames was reduced to 50%, meanwhile the incorporation of foreign last names (mainly from Spanish origin) increased. This significant change indicates the breakage of the isolation of the Casabindo population. The population from the first two centuries presented socio-cultural barriers related to the familiar organization (ayllu) and the colonial administrative organization (encomienda). This is associated to an elevated consanguinity and sedentarism, as well as low recent immigration and family name diversity. In addition, the “encomienda” system favored a high proportion of women immigrating into the population. Only four originally native names are present in the Casabindo area since 1557. From the middle of the 17th century 25 names have been reported in the population. In the beginnings of the 21st century a gradual and selective geographic dispersion of these 25 names has been observed.The tracking of the antroponyms, in intervals of 100 years between the 16th and 21st centuries, allowed the indirect analysis of the demogenetic structure of the Casabindo population. The permanence of the antroponyms in space and time suggest the possible maintenance of a genetic background with distinctive characteristics which could be associated to molecular markers. The relationship between the molecular markers and the surnames in the actual population as well as archeological human remains opens new possibilities to reconstruct the original pre-Hispanic population tree from the central part of the jujenean Puna. This would further contribute to the better understanding of the bio-cultural identity of the Casabindo and Jujuy population.
