Description
Summary:The archaeological heritage has multiple meanings in constant reformulation, which gives him a polysemic feature. In this sense, I expose the results of an ethnographic study focused on the exploration of the local knowledge about the archaeological site of Los Guachimontones, located in Western Mexico. The analysis of the information collected in Teuchitlán, the closest village to the pre-Hispanic site, allows us to identify three different models of local meanings and representations regarding this ancient space. They are presented in this text as generational narratives.
