| Sumario: | This article aims to bring closer the historiographical practices involved in the development of a plausible “archive” to be consulted despite its location, within the framework of the Argentine Mission Project that studies and seeks to preserve Amenmose’s tomb (TT318), in Luxor, Egypt. We think of the archive as a sedimented construction; therefore, it is a historical one. The in situ fieldwork and interdisciplinary research in Argentina allows registering doings and sayings typical of a geography of the global South. We compiled information from the first nineteenth-century records in a colonial archaeology until the documentation that we carry out, in layers of diverse ethnographic meanings and situations. To understand and recreate the occupational history of the site and the conservation of the monument, we analyze the link between transdisciplinary work and archive, which we consider as an "iconotext/palimpsest" constantly changed. |
