TORRES, Andreia Martins. Glass necklaces from Quiatoni (Mexico): their agency and symmetry in anthropological and museological practices. Etnográfica [online]. 2018, vol.22, n.1, pp.27-51. ISSN 0873-6561. https://doi.org/10.4000/etnografica.5141.
This work aims to reflect about the hermeneutics of the historical narratives created about the glass necklaces of the Zapotec community of San Pedro Quiatoni, in the context of museology and anthropology. Placed in museums, stripped off the context that relates them to the people who used them and the meanings they assumed, these objects have become a tool to recreate the past and rebuild the present under certain ideals. These resignifications that occur in various institutions, validated by historical discourse, is what we try to recover. The aim is to compare these images and agencies with those created by the anthropologist doing ethnographic work in the community, to emphasize its limits and possibilities in a context marked by conflicts of interpretation.
