Between the end of the 19th Century and the beginning of the 20th, a group of journalist and writers proceeding of Uruguay decide to trespass the Rio de la Plata frontier and search an opportunity in the Argentinian cultural field. First, they stay in Buenos Aires, and then, they settle down in different points of the Country. The provinces Misiones, Entre Rios and Tucuman become the geographic spaces that show the desired opportunity for itself growth and definitive residence. In the city of San Miguel de Tucuman, in the Argentinian Northwest, stay the brothers Alberto and German Garcia Hamilton. In the present paper we try to identify the cultural traces of this Uruguayans brothers in the Argentinian literary field. They do their first contributions from the El Orden, a newspaper from Tucuman, between 1898 and 1900. Our hypothesis is that Garcia Hamilton brothers make important contributions to the culture of that time thanks to a parental and friendship net marked by their own cultural trajectory. As conclusion, we can say that this parental and friendship micro-net reproduce in low scale the existent net between the interior of Uruguay and the interior of Argentina stablished in parallel to the intellectual life development of port cultural metropolis from both riversides of River Plate.
