Indigenous Archaeology as Political Action
Indigenous peoples, Archaeology, and Political Action (as politics and power) are already intertwined concepts, mutually implicating one another within the history of modern colonialism, a sociohistorical process that included categorizations of the colonial other, hegemonic relations of knowledge, and particular ways of exerting power and developing state-client relations. Indigenous archaeology is therefore already knitted into political relati…
Local Archaeologies and Heritage Territory
Hilos de la trama patrimonial en Pomán
En una lectura oblicua de un caso singular en el Noroeste argentino se explora el lugar de las relaciones locales con el patrimonio arqueológico frente a agentes no locales: ciencia, Estado y capital. Si bien se puede predecir que los antagonismos de intereses territoriales crecerán junto con la evolución de las relaciones entrelazadas dentro del territorio, la situación analizada muestra un panorama diferente. La patrimonialización está protagon…
Arqueologia no território do sacrifício
Within post-colonial territorial entanglements, various groups of agents come together to tense the conflict around the relationships of meaning with the territory. When the conflict scenario is tense, the various sets of agents are aligned according to their basic epistemic complicities. The locality (or local community), on the one hand, and science, the State and capital on the other, unfold their respective space-times in territorial entangle…
Dioses, objetos y mercancías
En este texto se realiza una comparación entre las trayectorias de la formación de la arqueología y los Estados nacionales peruano y argentino y sus implicancias para la constitución de diversas identidades colectivas, principalmente políticas. Con ese objetivo, se presenta una síntesis de la relación entre la historia de las arqueologías peruana y argentina, los Estados nacionales, los contextos sociopolíticos y las configuraciones de diversidad…
Conhecimento É O Relacionamento
Por que a arqueologia deve ser colocada em quarentena? Qual seria o vírus que a arqueologia espalha sem que percebamos? É, por um lado, uma disciplina do conhecimento, uma ciência que, como todas elas, estabelece um distanciamento entre ela e o saber leigo. Ao mesmo tempo, trata-se de conhecimentos, acumulados ao longo de décadas e séculos por povos que, muitas vezes, foram colonizados por mecanismos que incluem, justamente, a subordinação de seu…
Arqueología indisciplinada, encuentros intersubjetivos y relacionalidades múltiples
Este ensayo, elaborado a partir de conversaciones entre el arqueólogo Alejandro Haber -investigador y docente de la Universidad de Catamarca- y las antropólogas sociales Mariela Eva Rodríguez y Ana Cecilia Gerrard -editoras del dossier especial por los setenta años de la revista Runa. Archivo para las Ciencias del Hombre-, se presenta como una oportunidad para reflexionar colectivamente. Sus autores recorren diversos temas, entre los cuales se en…

Actas del Taller Interacciones socioeconómicas entre el noroeste argentino y norte de Chile en épocas prehispánicas, 26-30 de agosto de 1996
Propone la constitución de un comité permanente, un grupo de trabajo que esté siempre activo, de un lado y de otro de la cordillera, y que cada dos años puedan reunirse con tareas programadas: en tal sentido, este Taller sería el comienzo de una acción binacional
Decolonizing Archaeological Thought in South America
Decolonizing archaeological thought in South America happens through three paths: (a) a critical approach to the ways archaeology contributes to coloniality, (b) a criticism of the mechanisms by which coloniality informs archaeology, and (c) a varied exposure of archaeology to subaltern (that is, non-hegemonic and counter-hegemonic) knowledge. These three paths are sometimes taken together and sometimes alone, and the diverse pieces of thought re…

Por que no presente contexto territorial de intervenção do capital a arqueologia de contrato (AC) é tão eficiente em termos de mercado? No sentido de buscar uma resposta para esta questão será dissecada a profunda cumplicidade entre, por um lado, as premissas teórico-metodológicas tecnologicamente da AC e,por outro, as premissas ontológicas e epistemológicas hegemônicas mobilizadas pelas narrativas do desenvolvimento. Depois de apresentar os fund…
Histories of the Archaeological Discipline
Commentary
While commenting on the debate on ethics in African archaeology, this paper asks for a contextualisation of archaeological practice in territorial entanglements where capital, state and science — including archaeology — meet with local territorial agencies in encounters that work as battlegrounds where globalised discourses and practices (corporations, states, science) intervene in local territories, communities and knowledge. By codifying episte…
Tiempo de carnaval. Colonialidad de la arqueología y semiopraxis de la serpiente
Este texto explota la historia ontológicamente intrincada de mi vinculación con un sitio arqueológico minero, el mismo sitio donde estalló uno de los primeros levantamientos anticoloniales durante el carnaval de 1775. Comenzando con la vinculación usual de un arqueólogo con la investigación antecedente, e identificando y expandiendo la inclusión de diversas agencias en la historia, se diversifica rápidamente para incluir no sólo mi consideración …
Roedores del Holoceno tardío de la Puna de Atacama, sitio arqueológico Tebenquiche Chico, Catamarca, Argentina
We study a sample of rodents coming from the archaeological site Tebenquiche Chico, situated on the Antofagasta de la Sierra Department, Catamarca Province, near to the Antofalla salt-flat at 520 m elevation. The site is a small settlement inhabited between the IV and XII centuries and repopulated in the XVII century. The remains were recovered from the buildings of the archaeological site, near a small vega, old irrigation canals, and agricultur…
Counter-Practices of Global Life
We had hoped for a substantive response around the argument presented in ‘What’s up with WAC?’, instead Claire Smith has responded with a list of what she styles as ‘errors of fact and errors of representation’. Nevertheless, we thank her for the attention with which she has read our paper, and we look forward to the ‘more discursive response’ which she indicates will be forthcoming. A careful reading of Smith’s response yields fi ve points at wh…
Un-Disciplining Archaeology
Animism, Relatedness, Life
Both present academic theories and local native peoples' beliefs and practices are the result of complex colonial histories, and sometimes even evolved in curious interactions. Nevertheless, it should be kept in mind that scientific and local native theories are usually on opposite sides of the colonial border. In this article I explore the colonial and decolonizing potential of the 'animistic turn' in archaeology, focusing on my own trajectory o…

Reframing social equality within an intercultural archaeology
In this paper two archaeological cases from the Southern Andean Altiplano (Collau) region of Antofagasta (Catamarca, Argentina, South America) are presented. While both cases could have been presented in opposition to narratives centred on the assertion of complexity and/or social inequality, the reconstruction here attempts to build on an indigenous theory of relatedness. Such theory, avoiding both the division of reality to treat society as sep…
What's up with WAC? Archaeology and 'Engagement' in a Globalized World
The year 2011 marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the World Archaeological Congress (WAC). WAC marked a bold intervention in the politics of knowledge in archaeology in the context of the mid-1980s. But how has it fared in contemporary worlds of practice? In this paper, two senior WAC members take a close and critical look at the changing fortunes, meanings, and contexts of the organization. At its centre, is an account of the controversial mee…
Caspinchango, la ruptura metafísica y la cuestión colonial en la arqueologia sudamericana
Nometodología Payanesa
Si nos preguntásemos por la posibilidad de una investigación decolonial, habría que pensar en la aptitud de la metodología de investigación para tal propósito, y si en todo caso la razón decolonial no habría de ocuparse de decolonizar la metodología. En este trabajo me propongo aportar a la reflexión metodológica en clave decolonial, que encuentro seriamente vacante. Partiendo de la idea de la inmediatez vestigial perdida en la investigación mode…

Are the spades a useful category in the analysis, understanding and narration of their participation in past social life? Through the analysis and discussion of the diverse practical contexts of which the spades were part of, the ways in which these artifacts were categorized and participated actively in the constitution of the subjects, the domestic social groups and the oasis landscape are explored. Whole and fragmented basalt- andesitic spade …

Caspinchango, la ruptura metafísica y la cuestión colonial en la arqueologia sudamericana
Patrimonio: Territorio, objetos, símbolos, personas. ¿Cuál es la disputa?
Pensar la cuestión patrimonial requiere, al menos a la manera de recaudo metodológico, tener presente que se trata de un concepto cuya genealogía se asocia a dos cuestiones centrales: el surgimiento de la modernidad2 y la emergencia de los estados nacionales. En este sentido, está directamente asociado al modo de producción capitalista3 y expresa en sus formas hegemónicas el pensamiento y las prácticas de los sectores dominantes por afianzar o in…
