| Summary: | Here I present an unpublished document where Ciro René Lafón, a doctor in Anthropology, archaeologist and professor of Archaeology of the Bachelor (licenciatura) of Anthropology at the School of Philosophy and Letters of the University of Buenos Aires between 1950 and 1974, tells about his passage through the Ethnographic Museum of Buenos Aires as a student, a teacher and a researcher. In this so-called “Little History”, Lafón refers to his own experience and the efforts faced by the academic community towards the professionalization of the anthropological discipline. He thus refers to the faculty success facing internal and external obstacles. In so doing his testimony adopts a unique perspective: his continuity throughout eras marked by ruptures, interventions and political polarization.
