HISTORICAL TEXTILE TECHNOLOGY IN PREHISPANIC RITUAL CONTEXTS. ANTOFAGASTA DE LA SIERRA, CATAMARCA, NORTHWEST ARGENTINE

In this paper we study a sample composed by textiles and cordages displaying both modern and native characteristic attributes1, recovered from architectonical structures related with ritual practices. These structures correspond to the archaeological site of Peñas Coloradas 3 Cumbre, defined as a lo...

Soledad textile practices ritual contexts Republican period social identities prácticas textiles ritualidad Período Republicano identidades sociales In this paper we study a sample composed by textiles and cordages displaying both modern and native characteristic attributes1, recovered from architectonical structures related with ritual practices. These structures correspond to the archaeological site of Peñas Coloradas 3 Cumbre, defined as a low intensity residential environment with both ritual and deposit practices, also working as a visual control point of the landscape (Cohen 2004).  We present a techno-morphological study of the textile evidence and, at the same time, we ask ourselves about the possible identitary connotations of such materialities that, although corresponding to the Republican Period, were found in pre-Hispanic structures linked to the ancestors. Taking the study of historical textile technology recovered by systematics excavations in the study area as a starting point, we highlight the continuity of certain technological attributes in textiles and cordages, from hunter-gatherers until historical moments in ritual contexts. We argue that these materialities were constituted, from the oldest to the more recent past, as identitary referents anchoring certain ways of doing, even with the reformulation of the “old” in new techniques and meanings. En el presente artículo analizamos una muestra compuesta por textiles y cordeles  con atributos de características autóctonas y  modernas1,  recuperados en estructuras arquitectónicas vinculadas a prácticas rituales. Las mismas corresponden al sitio Peñas Coloradas 3 Cumbre, definido como un ámbito de baja intensidad residencial con prácticas rituales y de depósito, además de tratarse de un punto de control visual del paisaje (Cohen 2014). Presentamos un estudio tecno-morfológico de la evidencia textil y, a su vez, indagamos sobre posibles connotaciones identitarias de dichas materialidades que si bien corresponden al Período Republicano fueron halladas en estructuras prehispánicas vinculadas a los ancestros. A partir del estudio de la tecnología textil histórica recuperada en excavaciones sistemáticas en el área de estudio destacamos la continuidad de ciertos atributos tecnológicos en los textiles y cordeles que perduran desde tiempos de cazadores recolectores hasta momentos históricos en contextos rituales. Proponemos que estas materialidades se constituyeron, desde el pasado más lejano al más reciente, como referentes identitarios que sedimentan la perduración de ciertos modos de hacer, aún con la reformulación de lo antiguo con nuevas técnicas y significados.
