Sumario:This work addresses the study of the representations, meanings and practices of amateurs and archaeologists around archeology in the south of the Punilla valley, in the province of Córdoba. From Public Archaeology, focusing the analysis on the dialogue of knowledge, the processes of subjectivation are explored and understood, in order to provide elements for the anthropological discussion of the places and links of subjects in the construction of knowledge about past societies of the region. The methodological proposal of virtual ethnography was initially adopted, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and subsequently the interviews were in person. Based on the proposed questionnaires, it was possible to contemplate a change of perspective on archaeologists, from considering amateurs as destroyers of archaeological sites, to seeing them as collaborators in archaeological work. On the part of the amateurs, there was an understanding regarding the importance of the public nature of the objects and the knowledge that is produced through them, realizing the importance of the interaction and integration of multiple voices.
