TORINO, Rocío. The role of ceramics in the guaraní expansion: How are material culture, new spaces and people related?. Rev. Mus. Antropol. [online]. 2021, vol.14, n.2, pp.00-00. ISSN 1852-060X.  http://dx.doi.org/http://doi.org/10.31048/1852.4826.v14.n2.29803.

The Guaraní groups have been studied by various researchers from South America. Their interest has been focused mainly on its dispersion from the north of the Amazon forest to the Río de la Plata. But also, in the homogeneity -both morphological and in surface treatments- that ceramic technology presents over time and space. Based on the analysis of vessels attached to these populations that have been deposited in the La Plata Museum and in the Ethnographic Museum of Buenos Aires, this article aims to rethink the Guaraní dispersion through material culture. In this sense, it is stated that, when transiting and inhabiting other -and new- spaces, the Guaraní groups carried with them their own ways of understanding the world and ontologies that order it. Ceramics was not exempt, because it participated in a network of relationships between the human and the non-human. Therefore, this and the Guaraní dispersion cannot be thought of separately, if not as part of a world of relationships, memories and stories where ceramics interacted, influenced and determined these relationships that go back to a long history.
