description This paper examines how archaeology is represented in scientific articles of Argentinean newspapers of national circulation published between 1994 and 2006. The aim of this project is to learn about the social construction of archaeological knowledge in these spaces. In these articles, the archaeological information is reorganized and recontextualizated: archaeological concepts are set in relation to other concepts that are not from the archaeological field. In this way other narratives about the past can be made. The newspapers analyzed here, tend to cluster the archaeological articles into groups according to their geographical location or by subject matters of interest to the public. As informal educators, in Argentine, mass media has played a prominent role in the popularization of science and was one of the most used devices for this purpose. For that reason, they can be seen as a space that allows us to analyze those uses and the social needs concerning archaeology. This information is needed, although it is not enough, to create communication strategies focused on the public and to stimulate the local use of that knowledge.
