| Summary: | This work addresses, from an ethnographic perspective, the ways in which the people in San Antonio del Cajón (Catamarca, Argentina) socialize with objects and sites from the past. Faced with positions that stress the political appropriation of objects and sites in contexts of ethnic claims such as the Cajonista, this text studies the material and immaterial aspects, as well as the posible practical uses which culminate in a contemporary reuse. Thereby, it highlights the way in which some cultural processes run parallel to others, such as the political demands, without being overridden and articulately overlapping. |
