Archaeology of African slavery on the Uruguayan-Brazilian border: The case of “Estancia de los Correa” (Rocha, Uruguay)
In Uruguay, there are communities of African slaves’ descendants (18th and 19th centuries) that present unfavorable structural social and economic conditions.

description |
In Uruguay, there are communities of African slaves’ descendants (18th and 19th centuries) that present unfavorable structural social and economic conditions. In addition to poverty and discrimination, these communities have been excluded from the narratives of the nation-building process. However, they have played a fundamental role in the historical development of the national rural productive matrix. Within the livestock development, the role that the slaves have played is not part of the official historical narrative. This work focuses on making visible the role of the slave workforce in the first livestock developments in the country. The largest colonial farm of the southern border between Uruguay and Brazil was located, identified, and archaeologically contextualized. We identified and registered “historical farms”, cemeteries, and different structures in stone (corrals, fences, pens, etc.), as well as different places were the slaves worked. The archaeological reconstruction of slavery was an appropriate way to update local history, repositioning the slaves in the memory of their descendants. |
