Presentamos los resultados de un estudio realizado sobre diversas clases de documentos, con el fin de dar a conocer la relación entre la minería y el devenir histórico-social del área de Taltal-Paposo en la costa desértica del norte grande de Chile, desde la prehistoria a nuestros días. Para su documentación, se trabajó en el Archivo Nacional de Chile, se recurrió a impresos de los siglos XIX, XX y XXI y se analizó material arqueológico y etnográfico que se ha obtenido en la localidad, a fin de mostrar las continuidades y cambios socioculturales producto del desarrollo minero en este territorio. Se ofrece este aporte desde un enfoque antropológico, que pretende un diálogo amplio transdisciplinar.Palabras claves: Taltal, Paposo, antropología histórica, minería, continuidades y transformaciones.

Con el objeto de contribuir a la formación de sujetos históricos en el marco del actual sistema educativo formal de la Comuna de Taltal, hemos desarrollado un proyecto que vincula los conocimientos académicos que hemos generado sobre el territorio y su (pre)historia en el marco de tres proyectos Fondecyt sucesivos, con saberes locales no académicos y con estrategias pedagógicas y didáctica de enseñanza-aprendizaje que responden a los objetivos de los planes curriculares del Ministerio de Educación, contextualizándolos a la realidad local. El presente trabajo sintetiza los alcances del proyecto y discute las posibilidades de profundizar los vínculos entre arqueología y educación formal en el marco de una arqueología pública crítica.Palabras claves: educación formal, arqueología pública, Comuna de Taltal.In this paper, we summarize the scope of a project that we have developed in order to make a contribution to the training of local critical agents within the frame of the current educational system of Taltal, in northern Chile. The goal of the project is to connect the academic knowledge on the territory and its (pre)history, which we have produced through three successive research projects, with local non-academic knowledge, educational strategies, and teaching-learning methodologies, which meet the objectives of Ministry of Education's official curricular programs, but from a local context. We also reflect on the possibilities of strengthening the ties between archaeology and formal education within the frame of a critical public archaeology.
On 16 September 2015, the Mw 8.3 Illapel megathrust earthquake broke the subduction contact of the Nazca plate beneath the South American plate, causing unexpectedly high tsunami waves that strongly impacted the coast along the Coquimbo region in central–northern Chile. Here, we report results from a postearthquake and tsunami survey, evidencing a complex coastal geological response driven by the near coast and near trench seismic patches that ruptured during this event. Systematically, high tsunami run-ups, up to 10–11 m a.s.l., were measured on the western coast of the Punta Lengua de Vaca Peninsula in front of the near trench rupture patch, whereas tsunami run-ups up to 5–6 m were measured close to the near coast rupture patch. Detailed measurements conducted in the Coquimbo area revealed tsunami run-ups systematically higher than 6–6.5 m and up to 7.8 m. Field observations of bleached coralline algae supported by ulterior laboratory experiences were compared with geodetic measurements that evidenced complex and variable alongshore uplift-subsidence responses of the coast, suggesting a relative consistency with respect to its modern geomorphological configuration. From the analysis of pit dug in the Tongoy area, which was strongly impacted by this last tsunami, we evaluated distinctive sandy layers with benthic foraminifera tests interbedded between alluvial fine sediments, which we interpreted as paleotsunami events dated before 1108 ± 77 C.E., shortly before 1346 ± 50 C.E., and approximately 1473 ± 37 C.E. In addition to the historical massive tsunamis that occurred in 1730, 1877, and 1922 C.E. in central and northern Chile, we interpreted prehistoric tsunamis revealed here as events triggered by large megathrust earthquake ruptures, evidencing the high exposition of these coasts to near fields as well as to distant tsunamis produced along the Chilean subduction margin but also in the pan-Pacific region.
En este trabajo se presenta una síntesis y discusión sobre la presencia de patologías congénitas y defectos del desarrollo en individuos de diferentes periodos arqueológicos de la costa de la región de Antofagasta, en el norte de Chile, las que se concentran en el esqueleto axial. A pesar de que la muestra analizada presenta un número bajo (n = 6), se realiza una comparación con casos reportados para la zona costera de Arica y Tarapacá, obteniéndose que la diferencia entre ambas zonas no es estadísticamente significativa. Considerando antecedentes ambientales y etnohistóricos de la zona, se propone que una combinación a la exposición de diferentes contaminantes naturales, junto a un sistema de parentesco endogámico, serían las causas más probables de la aparición de estas patologías.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
