Ataliva is a town in the department of Castellanos in the province of Santa Fe, Argentina. Founded at the end of the 19th century, it maintains some of the characteristics of the rest of the colonies: it is from the beginning a purely agricultural colony, with a population coming from a mostly Italian immigration process. It is the tenth most populated town in the Castellanos department; and the 106th in the province of Santa Fe. In 2010 it had a population of approximately 2100 inhabitants.
Ataliva was founded by the San Miguel de Tucumán native Ataliva Roca in 1884 in the area of the old railroad station. Since it was not in a good location due to the constant presence of quarrelsome gauchos, it was moved one kilometre to its present site.
