Las preguntas que cuentan: Ideas and interpretations in Latin American Historical Archaeology

Part of: Society for Historical Archaeology 2014

The historical archaeology of the former Spanish and Portuguese colonies in the Americas encompasses a diversity of political, intellectual, and methodological approaches. This diversity reflects the unique intellectual traditions Latin America brings to historical archaeology, the ways that differing governmental regimes deal with the historic past of Portuguese and Spanish colonialism throughout the Americas, and the ways that local cultural diversity affect how the historic past is studied, and presented, in Latin America. In this session we will explore approaches taken by both North American and Latin American scholars to research, and interpret, 500 years of Spanish and Portuguese colonialism and its aftermath in the Americas.
