Analyzing the agency and ontology of matter in archaeological remains supose undeniable challenges and nowhere are these challenges more acute than in the interpretation of the rock art of Patagonia.

description Analyzing the agency and ontology of matter in archaeological remains supose undeniable challenges and nowhere are these challenges more acute than in the interpretation of the rock art of Patagonia. Although the discussion around the ontology of our assumptions and categories enjoys a considerable place in anthropological and archaeological literature, the studies of Patagonian hunter-gatherers remain on the sidelines. In this essay I explore, without conclusive claims, a way of approaching to the La María Archaeological Site´s Rock art, in the south of the Central Plateau of Santa Cruz from an ontological perspective. Reviewing the chronicles of Musters and the ethnographic compilations that Casamiquela made among current Tehuelche peoples, I investigate the relevance of the concept of ensemble by Fowler (2017) and animism by Descola (2005), evaluating the possibility that the motifs of the rock art repertoire as guanacos, felines and hand negatives, can be approached in terms of exteriority / interiority-similarity / difference, taking up the notion of animism as an interpretive resource.
