| Summary: | As a polysemic and intricate concept, heritage can be studied from different perspectives. This translates into different ways of approaching and analyzing it, which have varied over time in accordance with changes in its meaning and scope. It is inferred that the elements that achieve the status of, or are officially declared as, heritage still present a vision restricted to the monumental and of particular beauty, linked to the outdated nature of the documents governing legitimization. Thus, the objective of this research article is to analyze the distribution and typology of heritage assets in the northern oasis of Mendoza, Argentina. For this purpose, a mixed methodological scheme is used, combining qualitative and quantitative aspects. Among the main results and reflections, the understanding of heritage associated with the monumental and singular is highlighted, as well as its approach as a decontextualized element. In addition, the concentration of heritage assets in the urban areas of the departments that make up the northern oasis is highlighted. |
