Pottery, Technical Practices and Mapuche Social Structure: a Case of Cultural Dynamism
Keywords:
Technical Practices, Pottery, Mapuche, Social dynamism.
Abstract
Mapuche pottery practice is defined by its high dynamism, typical of these manufacturing systems since the 19th century. The model proposed by Pierre Lemonnier for the technologicalrepresentation of the structures interacting in technical systems can be useful to analyse the dynamism documented in pottery technical practices. Thus, he describes three levels: the internal scale, as a technological transversal entity, and connected to social dynamics. In this case, it may be concluded that this dynamism is materialised in multiple forms and in different areas, constituting a defining element of the group which affects the complete social world.Downloads
