Resumen

MARTINEZ, M. Soledad. TEXTILE HISTORICAL TECHNOLOGY IN RITUAL PRE-HISPANIC CONTEXTS. ANTOFAGASTA DE LA SIERRA, CATAMARCA, NORTHWEST ARGENTINA.. Comechingonia [online]. 2017, vol.21, n.2, pp.1-10. ISSN 1851-0027.

In this paper we study a sample composed by textiles and cordages displaying both modern and native characteristic attributes1, recovered from architectonical structures related with ritual practices. These structures correspond to the archaeological site of Peñas Coloradas 3 Cumbre, defined as a low intensity residential environment with both ritual and deposit practices, also working as a visual control point of the landscape (Cohen 2004).  We present a techno-morphological study of the textile evidence and, at the same time, we ask ourselves about the possible identitary connotations of such materialities that, although corresponding to the Republican Period, were found in pre-Hispanic structures linked to the ancestors. Taking the study of historical textile technology recovered by systematics excavations in the study area as a starting point, we highlight the continuity of certain technological attributes in textiles and cordages, from hunter-gatherers until historical moments in ritual contexts. We argue that these materialities were constituted, from the oldest to the more recent past, as identitary referents anchoring certain ways of doing, even with the reformulation of the "old" in new techniques and meanings.

Palabras clave : textile practices, ritual contexts, Republican period, social identities.
