Abstract

DEL PAPA, Mariano C  and  PUCCIARELLI, Héctor M. Administración de las colecciones de antropología biológica del Museo de La Plata. Rev Arg Antrop Biol [online]. 2015, vol.17, n.2, pp.1-5. ISSN 1514-7991.  http://dx.doi.org/10.17139/raab.2015.0017.02.07.

In recent years, the approach to the relationship between anthropology and its subjects of interest has been noticeably modified. These transformations, which can be seen as the development of a new paradigm, highlight the existence of a new signification in the relationship between the different actors involved. Thus, the researcher is faced with the challenge of developing creative approaches with a sustainable line of research, and without detriment to the different actors in question. In this context, the anthropological collections -which remain in the guard of different museums and whose constitutive nature is diverse- have a great potential as pieces of evidence. Achieving an adequate treatment of the evidence will depend in great measure on the suggested administrative protocol.

Keywords : administration; Museum of La Plata; human remains; indigenous communities.
