Cochinoca Department
Cochinoca is a department located in the Jujuy Province, (Argentina). According to 2005 INDEC estimates, it had a population of 13,301 inhabitants. History When the Spanish conquistadors arrived in the region in the third decade of the sixteenth century they found indigenous, casabindos and cochinocas (partially originating from a mixture of likan antai and omaguacas). These were living in a large zone with abundant mineral resources and from the fifteenth century up to this point have been affected by quechua invaders. This may account for Cochinoca becoming the most important village in the Puna area of Argentina. The Cochinoca populous was founded in the early seventeenth century and by the end of that century it had between 600 and 800 inhabitants. Because of the displacement of the route through the village, the loss of its status as head of the department in favour of Abra Pampa, as well as the east-bound train line and the decrease in minerals, by 1915 its populati ...

Junta (governing Body)
Junta ( or ) is a Spanish, Portuguese and Italian () term for a civil deliberative or administrative council. In English, the term, even when used alone, generally refers to a "military junta", the government of an authoritarian state run by high-ranking officers of a military. In Italy, a ''giunta'' is the civil executive of regions (see Regions of Italy#Institutions) and of municipalities (''comune'', see Comune#Importance and function).
