In the beginning, Don Jose Menendez founded two big ranches, one on each side of Rio Grande. He called them The First and The Second Argentina, respectively. Currently, they are named after Jose Menendez (see images, founded 1896, 42560 ha) and his wife, Maria Behety. - In the 21st century, the Historical Truth Commission of 2008 and related scholarship uncovered the involvement of the Menéndez and Braun families in the genocide of the Selk'nam people. In total Menendez owned 430000 ha in Tierra del Fuego. scanned slides, Minolta X700

We stayed at this Estancia near Ruta 40 overnight, a really interesting experience. As far as I remember, the size of the Estancia is about 80 km², Don Enrice, the owner, told us.Tapi Aike was established in 1904 by von Heinz and Stubenrauch in a relatively high area with poor pastures on the plateau. The name is ancient, an Aonikenk place name for the small brackish lagoon that is located there. The word means "kidney" perhaps it was a good hunting place for guanacos.- scanned slide, Minolta X700
