Overview

Los contextos arqueológicos ""tradicionales"" no siempre proporcionan la información material necesaria para establecer explicaciones razonables sobre el comportamiento humano. En estos casos, los arqueólogos buscan otros campos que puedan contribuir a resolver los enigmas del pasado. Es en este marco que emerge la arqueología histórica e industrial, con una estructura interdisciplinaria que contribuye a mirar el contexto material con diferentes perspectivas y construir resultados más sólidos. En el caso particular de México, su impresionante pasado prehispánico ha eclipsado las investigaciones de otros períodos del pasado del país, como la época histórica e industrial. Aunque no hay tantos investigadores haciendo este tipo de arqueología, las investigaciones realizadas sobre esos períodos merecen ser conocidas. Este compendio académico buscó mostrar cómo se realiza la actividad arqueológica histórica en México con cinco trabajos, seguido de una segunda sección con otras cuatro investigaciones realizadas en Argentina, Brasil, Perú y El Salvador. ""Traditional"" archaeological contexts do not always provide the material information necessary to establish explanations about human behavior. In these cases, archaeologists often look to other disciplines to help solve the puzzles of the past. It is in this framework that the interdisciplinary fields of historical and industrial archaeology emerge. In Mexico in particular, the impressive pre-Hispanic past had overshadowed the research of other periods in the country's past, such as historic and industrial times. Although there are fewer researchers in these areas, the results of this research are important to overall regional narratives. This edited volume seeks to show how historical archaeological activity is carried out, firstly with five papers from Mexico, followed by a second section with four other investigations carried out in Argentina, Brazil, Peru and El Salvador.

Reviews

'Como investigador interesado en la arqueolog�a hist�rica creo que la aportaci�n del libro es de gran inter�s dado que presenta estudios de caso que van m�s all� de un asentamiento, ampliando su enfoque a zonas m�s extensas, �reas e incluso a valoraciones de s�ntesis y un estado de la cuesti�n sobre tem�ticas relevantes en el contexto latinoamericano.' Dr Juan Garcia Targa, University of Barcelona
