description Some of the archaeological collections of important museums of the Argentine Republic have been extensively researched by the scientific community, mainly in relation to their material valuation as evidence of the past occupation of human groups. However, the studies of this type of collections in the local museums of the Buenos Aires province have been scarcely developed. The collections can be approached as historical archives, because their information on the historiographic contextualization at the moment of their conformation; in this sense, it is not possible to consider the collection without the figure of the subject that shaped it and his agency capacity (i.e. collectors, hobbyists, archaeologists, historians, among others). The main objective of this paper is to analyze the stories about the process of creating the collections of the Archaeological Museum of Chasicó, located in the Estancia Don Natalio, Tornquist district, province of Buenos Aires. It should be noted that this institution has been declared a municipal historical site since 2006, and has an important number of pre-Hispanic and historical paleontological and archaeological pieces corresponding to the human groups that inhabited the southern sector of the Area Ecotonal Húmedo Seca Pampeana. Under this framework, we record the oral memory of the graduate Nora Cinquini, tutor of the the museum´collections as a method. In this way, memory is understood as a form of expression of identity, which allows to consider the construction processes that identify a community and its link with the past. The present work seeks to investigate the usefulness, the academic value and the contributions generated by the historiographic studies in order to know the origin of the museum archaeological collections – and to understand the identity processes that emerge from this type of institution.

Algunas de las colecciones arqueológicas de importantes museos de la República Argentina han sido investigadas extensamente por la comunidad científica, principalmente en relación a su valoración material como evidencia de la ocupación pretérita de grupos humanos. Sin embargo, los estudios de este tipo de colecciones en los museos locales de la Provincia de Buenos Aires han sido escasamente desarrollados. Las colecciones pueden ser abordadas como archivos históricos, dado que contienen información de la contextualización historiográfica del momento de su conformación; en este sentido, no es posible considerar a la colección sin la figura del sujeto que la conformó y su capacidad de agencia (i.e. coleccionistas, aficionados, arqueólogos, historiadores, entre otros). El objetivo principal de este artículo es analizar los relatos que dan cuenta del proceso de creación de las colecciones del Museo Arqueológico de Chasicó, ubicado en la Estancia Don Natalio, partido de Tornquist, provincia de Buenos Aires. Cabe destacar que se trata de una institución declarada Sitio Histórico Municipal desde el año 2006, y cuenta con un importante número de piezas paleontológicas y arqueológicas prehispánicas e históricas correspondientes a los grupos humanos que habitaron el sector sur del Área Ecotonal Húmedo Seca Pampeana. Bajo este marco, se propone abordar metodológicamente el registro de la memoria oral de la Licenciada Nora Cinquini, tutora de las colecciones que alberga el museo. De esta manera, se entiende a la memoria como una forma de expresión de identidad, la cual permite considerar a los procesos de construcción identitarios de una comunidad y su vínculo con el pasado. El presente trabajo busca indagar la utilidad, el valor académico y los aportes generados por los estudios historiográficos -en cuanto al origen de las colecciones arqueológicas museísticas- para la comprensión de procesos identitarios que emergen de este tipo de institución.  Archaeology Department of the School of Anthropology, Faculty of the Humanities and Arts, National University of Rosario 2020-02-19 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf https://revistaanuarioarqueologia.unr.edu.ar/index.php/AA/article/view/8 10.35305/aa.v11i.8 Anuario de Arqueología; Vol. 11 No. 11 (2019); 59-75 Anuario de Arqueología; Vol. 11 Núm. 11 (2019); 59-75 2684-0138 1852-8554 spa https://revistaanuarioarqueologia.unr.edu.ar/index.php/AA/article/view/8/6
