Abstract

In this short reflective paper, I stress the importance of situating the multiple archaeological practices of Latin America in their particular contexts, in reaction to the so-called ‘globalized’ and/or ‘postcolonial’ archaeologies practiced today. I argue that the different processes that give rise to the many ways of practicing our discipline around the world are embedded in multiple and divergent dynamics of socio-cultural and political interactions. I suggest that rather than simply adopting new forms of theorization imported from the usual theoretical production centers, we need to open new, dialectical and parallel channels of communication to articulate more balanced characterizations of the world’s archaeological practices. Examining and understanding the many places (and circumstances) of action of the different archaeological practices (i.e. analyzing the multiple archaeological practices in their own context) allows a more coherent flow and linkage of information between praxis and theories inherent in particular socio-political contexts.

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.
