Sumario:The Universidad Nacional de Tucumán (UNT) currently has several chairs around teaching anthropological disciplines. It owns the Institute of Archaeology and Museum (IAM) mainly centered on prehistoric studies. With a few exceptions, there is no research on issues of Biological or Social Anthropology. This state of absence is the result of a long journey that anthropology has experienced in this province. The interaction between different anthropological traditions, in addition to the belonging to different lineages various academic actors dedicated to these topics, produced an unfinished itinerary for institutionalizing Anthropology at UNT. However, paradoxically, between 1947 and 1952 the UNT had the first academic degree in Anthropology in the country. Its life cycle was short, unknown and forgotten. This paper seeks to analyze what determined the failure and what has been left from that incomplete institutionalization in the academic landscape of Anthropology produced from Tucuman province.
