Description
Santa Rosa de Calamuchita, la tierra de la abundancia.
EL nombre de Santa Rosa de Calamuchita se debe a la primera capilla fundada por la Orden Dominica en el 1700, erigiéndose en el lugar en homenaje a la Santa Rosa.
Por otra parte, Calamuchita es un vocablo indígena "Ctalamochita" o "Talamochita", vinculación de dos voces y un sufijo: "Ctala" y "Mochi" que significan "Tala" y "Molle" respectivamente, e "Ita", que expresa "Abundancia", por lo cual "Calamuchita" indica Abundancia de talas y molles.
La ciudad ,atravesada por el río Santa Rosa, esta inserta en el Valle de Calamuchita entre los cordones de las Sierras Grandes y Chicas.
Los comechingones y sanavirones fueron los primitivos pobladores del lugar, como en toda la zona serrana de la provincia cordobesa . Sobre los mismos podemos apuntar que eran de gran porte, agricultores de variados vegetales para su comida, con viviendas rústicas, sobretodo semienterradas en los desniveles del terreno serrano. Practicaban el telar para sus vestimentas con guardas lineales y algunos dibujos geométricos. Algo de cerámica que aún se conserva en ciertas poblaciones. Los más antiguos pobladores, trabajaban la piedra para sus armas de defensa. Fueron sometidos en principio por la evangelización jesuítica, que tuvo un amplio y fuerte trabajo en la región.
Los indígenas estaban agrupados en pueblos e integrados en provincias. Y es una de ellas, que le dió nombre especifico a Santa Rosa, fue la denominada Calamochita.
El primer conquistador español que pasó por el Valle de Calamuchita, fue Don Francisco Cesar en 1528, utilizando como vía de penetración el río Carcarañá en busca de la rica ciudad mencionada en la leyenda del Rey Blanco. Los indios fueron distribuidos en encomiendas y las tierras fueron entregadas en merced.
Santa Rosa de Calamuchita, formaba una merced de la que fue acreedor Don Pedro García Delgado. Estas tierras pasaron a su hija Francisca y su esposo Lázaro de Matos Dacilvera, hacia 1625 y en 1642 pasaron a propiedad de Don Pedro Cabrera cuando el Gobernador Don Miguel de Seses las otorgó en merced al español Don Sebastián Carranza y de la Torre.
No hay documento que testifique su fundación, pero se considera como tal el año 1575, y su historia comienza con las primeras estancias de españoles y con la llegada de los Jesuitas y su estancia de San Ignacio.
En 1877 Doña Mercedes Prado Nuñez y Don Estanislao Baños donan el predio correspondiente de la Iglesia de Santa Rosa, departamento Calamuchita.
En 1891, ya el nucleamiento población había tomado cuerpo y se crea la escuela primaria, la policía, la estafeta del correo y otras dependencias oficiales.
En 1935, el Sr. Diego Garzón fracciona y lotea el predio del actual casco céntrico de Santa Rosa.
La primera hostería se inauguró en 1929 y el transporte Diviú llevó a Córdoba en 1931.

Sacred Rosa of Calamuchita, the earth of the abundance. THE name of Santa Rosa of Calamuchita is due to the first chapel been founded by the Order Dominique in the 1700, being erected in the place in homage to the Santa Rosa. On the other hand, Calamuchita is an indigenous word "Ctalamochita" or "Talamochita", linking of two voices and a suffix: "Ctala" and "Mochi" that mean "Pruning" and "Molle" respectively, and "Ita" that expresses "Abundance", reason why "Calamuchita" it indicates Abundance of prunings and molles. The city, crossed by the river Santa Rosa, this it inserts in the Valley of Calamuchita among the cords of the Big and Small Mountains. The comechingones and sanavirones were the primitive residents of the place, like in the whole mountain area of the Cordovan county. On the same ones we can aim that they were of great behavior, farmers of varied vegetables for their food, with rustic housings, overalls semiburied in the differences of the mountain land. They practiced the loom for their gears with lineal guards and some geometric drawings. Something of ceramic that is still conserved in certain populations. The oldest residents, worked the stone for their defense weapons. They were subjected in principle by the Jesuit evangelism that had a wide and strong work in the region. The natives were contained in towns and integrated in counties. And it belongs one to them that he/she gave him name I specify Santa Rosa, it was the denominated Calamochita. The first Spanish conqueror that went by the Valley of Calamuchita, was Don Francisco Cesar in 1528, using as penetration road the river Carcarañá in search of the rich city mentioned in the King's legend Blanco. The Indians were distributed in you commend and the lands were given in grace. Sacred Rosa of Calamuchita, formed a grace of which was accrediting Don Pedro Thin García. These lands passed their daughter Francisca and their husband Lázaro of Matos Dacilvera, toward 1625 and in 1642 they passed to property of Don Pedro Goatherd when the Governor Don Miguel of Seses granted them in grace to Spanish Don Sebastian Carranza and of the Tower. There is not document that their foundation testifies, but it is considered as such the year 1575, and its history begins with the first stays of Spaniards and with the arrival of the Jesuit and its stay of San Ignacio. In 1877 Mrs. Mercedes Grassland Núñez and Don Estanislao Bathrooms donate the property corresponding of Santa Rosa's Church, department Calamuchita. In 1891, the nucleamiento population had already taken body and it is believed the primary school, the police, the courier of the mail and other official dependences. In 1935, Mr. Diego Garzón fractions and lotea the property of Santa Rosa's current central helmet. The first hostel was inaugurated in 1929 and the transport Diviú it took Córdoba in 1931.
