Towards the middle of the 1810’s decade, the Independence wars and the union between the provinces of the Rio de la Plata were weakened. A Constitutive Congress was held in Tucumán in order to define the future of the armed conflicts and to arrange a normative frame for the local politics. Having accomplished their main objective –the independence–, the assembly arranged a politic liturgy so as to create an image of order and union. But, this liturgy also presented contradictory representations. The purpose of this investigation is to recreate the meaning of the celebrations and speeches that, from the Tucuman’s public opinion, symbolized this juncture.
