I28-R145-12428_oai2025-11-17 Caretta , Gabriela Zacca, Isabel 2007-12-03 Burials not only reflect the legal, social and ethnic status of individuals, they also show a network of social relationships among which we find signs of exclusion, subjection and personal and collective links. The complexity of burial places cannot be understood without considering peoples’ imaginary about death. We will focus specifically on spaces thought of as burial grounds on Salta city during the eighteenth Century in order to recognize “places” full of meaning to their inhabitants. The concept of place refers to the real and symbolic construction of space and Historians, without falling in an ethnographic illusion of transparency, are able to search for social markers and signs of identity, hierarchy and stratification as well as some clues regarding different imaginaries which give value and sustain those burial places in the town’s center. Los enterratorios como lugares no solo reflejan el status social, la condición étnica y jurídica del enterrado, sino además todo un entramado de relaciones sociales entre las que encontramos rasgos de exclusión, lazos de sujeción, vinculaciones personales y de grupos. Los lugares de entierro no pueden entenderse sin la consideración de los imaginarios en torno a la muerte. Nos centraremos en los espacios destinados al entierro en la ciudad de Salta a lo largo del siglo XVIII para reconocer en ellos “lugares”; es decir, espacios cargados de sentido para sus habitantes. El concepto de “lugar” nos remite a la construcción concreta y simbólica del espacio, en el que los historiadores, sin caer en la ilusión de su transparencia, pueden leer marcas sociales, pautas de identificación, estratificación y conflictos así como indicios acerca de la presencia de imaginarios que valoran y sostienen el entierro en el centro de la ciudad. Os locais de sepultamento não refletem apenas o status social, a etnia e o status legal da pessoa enterrada, mas também toda uma rede de relações sociais, entre as quais encontramos traços de exclusão, laços de sujeição e conexões pessoais e grupais. Os locais de sepultamento não podem ser compreendidos sem considerar os imaginários em torno da morte. Concentrar-nos-emos nos espaços destinados ao sepultamento na cidade de Salta ao longo do século XVIII para identificar neles "lugares"; isto é, espaços carregados de significado para seus habitantes. O conceito de "lugar" nos remete à construção concreta e simbólica do espaço, na qual os historiadores, sem cair na ilusão da transparência, podem ler marcadores sociais, padrões de identificação, estratificação e conflitos, bem como indícios sobre a presença de imaginários que valorizam e sustentam o sepultamento no centro da cidade. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/MA/article/view/12428 10.34096/mace.v15i(1 y 2).12428 spa Sección Etnohistoria, Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas.
