Aportes A La Cronología Absoluta De La Estancia Jesuítica De Alta Gracia (Córdoba, Argentina): Estudio Arqueomagnético De La Baldosa De La Parroquia Nuestra Señora De La Merced

Archaeomagnetic dating of tiles from the Parish of Nuestra Señora de la Merced in Alta Gracia, Argentina, has provided a precise age range of 1780–1806 for their installation. This finding significantly refines the chronology of the Jesuit Mission of Alta Gracia by associating the tile-laying with the administration period of José Rodríguez and his son Manuel (1772–1809). The study used the SHA.DIF.14k geomagnetic field prediction model to rule out earlier Jesuit-era placement or association with Viceroy Santiago de Liniers' brief stay in 1810, offering critical insights into the site's historical timeline.
