FLORES, Carlos  y  ACUTO, Félix A. Pueblos originarios y arqueología argentina: Construyendo un diálogo intercultural y reconstruyendo la arqueología. Intersecciones antropol. [online]. 2015, vol.16, n.1, pp.179-194. ISSN 1850-373X.

This paper is the product of an intercultural dialogue between an archaeological research team studying the indigenous past of the Calchaquí Valley (Salta, Argentina) and representatives of Argentine Indigenous people. The paper combines the critical perspective and claims of Indigenous peoples concerning archaeological practice with a reflexive academic perspective. Together these perspectives seek to go beyond critique to put forward a specific praxis, understood as theoretically informed political action. By establishing a counterpoint between the academic voice and the indigenous voice, this article proposes the following: the development of collaborative and dialogue-based work; a different way of producing knowledge about the past; and an archaeological praxis oriented towards providing tools to strengthen the claims and rights of Indigenous peoples, their identity building processes, and their heritage demands.

Palabras clave : Indigenous peoples; Archaeology; Dialogue; Praxis.
