THE CONSTRUCTION OF A MEMORY SPACE IN A FORMER CLANDESTINE CENTER FOR DETENTION, TORTURE AND DISAPPEARANCE OF PEOPLE IN OLAVARRÍA (ARGENTINA). State terrorism was a process that affected most Latin American people several decades ago, although, as with all genocidal processes, its consequences and impact can still be felt. In Argentina, the processes of reparation and justice in cases of crimes against humanity generated multiple actions, among which the most important has been the creation of memory sites. Several such spaces have been created in recent decades throughout the country, with archeology often playing a significant part. This article explains the process of activating heritage in one case, that of the Monte Pelloni memory space, as well as its significance and social value, citizen participation, and the challenges that had to be faced in terms of the role of the archaeologist as a professional.

Keywords : Space of Memory; State terrorism; Social significance; Patrimonial activation; Citizen participation; Archaeology.
