Strengthening social relationships through community archaeology at Nueva Esperanza, El Salvador: Challenges and lessons
Abstract
Though collaborative community archaeology continues to grow worldwide, it is still an underdeveloped aspect of archaeological research in Central America. In this article, I describe an attempt to conduct community archaeology in the community of Nueva Esperanza, El Salvador. This article outlines how archaeological findings and collaborative archaeological practices impacted the people living at the site and how a community's collaboration impacts archaeologists. I explore the nature and significance of an open communication between archaeologists and communities in archaeological practice. This enriches our understanding of the past, thereby creating new values and meanings in relation to the archaeological material. The archaeological site provides a gathering place where collective memories are forged, and social relationships between different generations, genders, and other communities in the region are strengthened.

There have been archaeologists from Latin America, working in Latin America, who have steadfastly applied the principles of community-based research in their work.
“Nonetheless, there have been archaeologists from Latin America, working in Latin America, who have steadfastly applied the principles of community-based research in their work (e.g. Hernández Álvarez & Martín Medina 2016; Balanzátegui Moreno 2018; Ichikawa 2018; Migeon 2019; Diserens Morgan & Leventhal 2020; Harrison-Buck & Clarke-Vivier 2020; Fryer & Diserens Morgan 2021; McAnany et al. 2021;”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
