Tucumán Province
Tucumán ((:tukuˈman)) is the most densely populated, and the smallest by land area, of the provinces of Argentina. Located in the northwest of the country, the province has the capital of San Miguel de Tucumán, often shortened to Tucumán. Neighboring provinces are, clockwise from the north: Salta, Santiago del Estero and Catamarca. It is nicknamed El Jardín de la República (''The Garden of the Republic''), as it is a highly productive agricultural area.
==Etymology==
The word ''Tucumán'' probably originated from the Quechua languages. It may represent a deformation of the term ''Yucumán'', which denotes the "place of origin of several rivers". It can also be a deformation of the word ''Tucma'', which means "the end of things". Before Spanish colonization, the region lay in the outer limits of the Inca empire.〔
