description |
Among the monumental columns and hypostyle rooms of the Egyptian temples, among thousands of hieroglyphs, gods, goddesses, pharaohs, royal families and priests, there are also some minimal stories that deserve and should be told. Exists around these monumental spaces, narratives and alternative practices to the global heritage and classical Egyptology, mediated by the actions of people who affect and are affected by these spaces. In this work, I will explore a special link between the contemporary population and the Pharaonic archaeological sites, in the area that currently comprises the Luxor Governorate (Arab Republic of Egypt). I will focus on a particular type of trace, the darkening of some hieroglyphs product of repeated hand contact. I will discuss the possibility that knowledge dispersed by an Egyptology that has been around for centuries, is captured and resignified by very powerful issues for that community such as giving life, fertility and the place of women. |

Fertilidade, arqueologia e comunidade em Luxor (República Árabe do Egito) Marconetto, María Bernarda Heritage Archaeology Egypt Women Fertility Patrimonio Arqueología Egipto Mujeres Fertilidad Herança Arqueologia Egito Mulheres Fertilidade Among the monumental columns and hypostyle rooms of the Egyptian temples, among thousands of hieroglyphs, gods, goddesses, pharaohs, royal families and priests, there are also some minimal stories that deserve and should be told.

Entre las monumentales columnas y salas hipóstilas de los templos egipcios, entre millares de jeroglíficos, dioses, diosas, faraones, familias reales y sacerdotes, se inscriben también algunas historias que entendemos merecen y deben ser contadas. Existen en torno a estos espacios monumentales, narrativas y prácticas alternativas a la patrimonialización globalizada y a la egiptología clásica, mediadas por el accionar de gente que afecta y es afectada por esos espacios. Exploraré en este trabajo un especial vínculo entre la población contemporánea y los sitios arqueológicos faraónicos, en la zona que actualmente comprende la Gobernación de Lúxor (República Árabe de Egipto). Me centraré en un particular tipo de trazas, el oscurecimiento de algunos jeroglíficos, producto del repetido contacto con las manos. Discutiré la posibilidad de que conocimientos dispersados por una egiptología que lleva ya siglos de historia, es capturada y resignificada en torno a cuestiones muy potentes para esa comunidad como lo son el dar vida, la fertilidad y el lugar de las mujeres. Entre as colunas monumentais e salas hipostilo dos templos egípcios, entre milhares de hieróglifos, deuses, deusas, faraós, famílias reais e sacerdotes, também estão inscritas algumas histórias que entendemos merecem e devem ser contadas. Em torno desses espaços monumentais, encontram-se narrativas e práticas alternativas à patrimonialização globalizada e à egiptologia clássica, mediadas pelas ações de pessoas que afetam e são afetadas por esses espaços. Neste trabalho explorarei uma ligação especial entre a população contemporânea e os sítios arqueológicos faraônicos, na área que atualmente compreende a Governadoria de Luxor (República Árabe do Egito). Vou me concentrar em um tipo particular de traços, o escurecimento de alguns hieróglifos, o produto do contato repetido com as mãos. Discutirei a possibilidade de que conhecimentos dispersos por uma egiptologia já com séculos de história sejam capturados e ressignificados em torno de questões muito poderosas para aquela comunidade, como dar vida, fertilidade e o lugar da mulher.
