Abstract

MARTIN SILVA, Valeria Belén; ZABALA, Mariela Eleonora  and  FABRA, Mariana. Social cartography as a methodological resource for heritage analysis. mapping experiences in Miramar (Córdoba, Argentina). Perspectiva Geográfica [online]. 2019, vol.24, n.2, pp.125-148.  Epub Apr 06, 2020. ISSN 0123-3769.  https://doi.org/10.19053/01233769.8631.

This paper reflects on social cartography as a participatory theoretical-methodological research proposal for the study, analysis and sharing of archaeological heritage, based on a fieldwork experience in the town of Miramar (Córdoba, Argentina). For this purpose, we apply multiple collective mapping techniques, engaging museum workers, neighbors, tourists, and researchers in a dialogue on heritage -from a collaborative and transdisciplinary perspective- to discuss the opportunities and challenges offered by social mapping to heritage studies. It is concluded that critical and participatory cartographic practices gave rise to new ways of understanding the inhabited space that prioritize community's feelings on the construction of the local cultural landscape. Thus, this article seeks to contribute new methodological strategies for heritage research.

Keywords : Social cartography; heritage research; participatory method; archaeological heritage.
