Abstract

Mainly the rules of the urban form of the Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego have been conditioned by the traces of its territory, its landscape, its first inhabitants and by its colonizers. In this context, the current cities of that island have a figurative appearance compatible to the patterns of the classic Spanish model, with a system of subdivision and a repeated architectural typology, with the grid, the square regular block assuring the rationality of the organization as the characteristic of the urbanization not only of this island but of a whole continent. This article proposed to analyze the incidence of the palimpsest of Karukinka, that is, to follow the traces of the urban form in the territory and landscape, and its possible link with the native peoples, the Selk'nam. And in turn analyze continuity of the colonizing grid in the territory of Karukinka or Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego.
