AGUILAR DIAZ, Miguel. BETWEEN DIALOGUES AND REPATRIATIONS: COLONIAL REPAIR OF MEMORY AND PRESERVATION OF MACHU PICCHU. Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2011, n.12, pp.211-234. ISSN 1900-5407.

By 2011, it will have been a century since Hiram Bingham "discovered" Machu Picchu. It is the most significant site when it comes to establishing the Peruvian national identity; hence, repatriation has been important for the nation's image. The arguments supporting repatriation are economical and political strategies which pursue the appropriation of the site as a cultural heritage. In this paper, we will focus on state politics which identifies this matter as an act of postcolonial reparation.
