Nogolma

The Nogolma were an indigenous community associated with the Conlara valley, west of the Sierra de Comechingones. Under Spanish rule, people bearing this name were recorded in a settlement on the Río Segundo, in the jurisdiction of Córdoba. By the late seventeenth century many had been moved to the estate of their encomendero in Calamuchita, while their community retained lands on the river. Colonial records also mention people displaced from the Calchaquí valleys among them.
