Su conocimiento de las leyes lo han llevado a enfocar su atención en todas aquellas que conciernen a la protección, difusión y rescate del patrimonio tangible e intangible del país. Es el suyo un trabajo de años que se ha materializado en proyectos de leyes, mesas redon- das, conferencias y foros multidisciplinarios tanto en el país como en el extranjero, sin más satisfacción que la de saber que está contribuyendo con algo de suma utilidad para un país como el nuestro: un país que cada día sorprende con sus tesoros arqueológicos de tiempos jamás imaginados y el prodigio de las manos que hoy por hoy compiten en color y armonía con la creación de la naturaleza. Me refi ero a la industria textil, la cerámica y la ebanistería, entre otras, así como a la arquitectura y la escultura de las épocas prehispánica, colonial y republicana que son objeto de constante admiración en el mundo. La palabra breviario se refi ere a libro de lectura habitual o compendio y este, precisamente, cumple las dos funciones, porque está destinado a consultas frecuentes y a la vez es una suma de leyes relacionadas con la cultura. Entre las leyes aquí reunidas, están, la Ley de Protección del Patrimonio Cultural de la Nación, la Ley de creación de ADESCA, la de Fomento del Libro de Guatemala, la de Derechos de Autor, la de Espectáculos Deportivos, la de Protección de la Antigua Guatemala y la de creación de la Academia de Lenguas Mayas, entre otras. Es importante señalar que la recopilación se enriquece con observaciones pertinentes que con- tribuirán en gran manera a quienes estén interesados en el tema. Francisco Morales Santos 5 BREVIARIO DE LEGISLACIÓN CULTURAL PALABRAS LIMINARES Guatemala es un país con un rico y variado patrimonio cultural, tangible e intangible (material e inmaterial). Para restaurar, proteger, conservar, defender y difundir ese patrimonio, se han creado instituciones y dependencias de gobierno y se ha emitido una abundante legislación, compuesta por normas constitucionales, leyes ordinarias, acuerdos gubernativos, acuerdos mi nisteriales y acuerdos municipales. Se han ratifi cado también leyes internacionales, que, como consecuencia, han pasado a ser de obligado cumplimiento en el país. Estas últimas son las convenciones emitidas por organismos internacionales, principalmente por la UNESCO, or ganismo de la ONU, encargado de lo relativo a la ciencia, la educación y la cultura. La pu bli cación que el lector tiene en sus manos pretende dar un panorama en el que se encuentra un concepto relacionado con cultura, la defi nición legal de patrimonio cultural nacional y del patrimonio cultural inmaterial, un breve análisis del mismo y de algunas leyes relacionadas con el tema de legislación cultural, algunas ya derogadas, pero que en su momento fueron im portantes. Asimismo, algunos antecedentes de cómo el Estado ha creado instituciones rela cio nadas con el sector cultura, entre ellas el Ministerio de Cultura y Deportes, y por último un listado incompleto de las normas que están vigentes en Guatemala y que regulan as pectos de pa trimonio cultural. Se transcriben, también, algunas leyes y algunos artículos de las leyes que es necesario que se conozcan. De antemano aclaro que este trabajo es incompleto; está hecho con el propósito de que sirva de guía a quienes desean conocer de manera integral nuestra legislación cultural, en cuyo caso es recomendable leer los textos com pletos de las leyes y hacer las comparaciones e interpretaciones que sean necesarias. Espero que este trabajo llene las expectativas que me propuse al hacerlo, para que con tri buya a dar conocimientos aunque sean mínimos sobre la materia y para crear conciencia de la urgencia y necesidad de conocer nuestra legislación cultural, para las acciones de rescate, pro tección y difusión del patrimonio cultural guatemalteco que deben realizarse, pero sobre todo porque existe un principio jurídico, incorporado a nuestra legislación nacional, que dice: “La ignorancia de la ley no exime su cumplimiento”. Agradezco el apoyo logístico y secretarial de Blanca Azurdia Ponce (†), Julissa López y Magalí Muñoz de Castillo. Este trabajo es producto de un curso de introducción a la Le- gislación Cultural coordinado por Beatriz Quevedo, directora de Casa Mima, que se llevó a cabo en el Mu seo de Arte Moderno Carlos Mérida en el primer semestre del año 2005. Este esfuerzo se perfeccionará cuando toda la legislación cultural se incluya en una recopilación de varios vo lúmenes, que algunos colegas abogados están elaborando. Por último debo con- signar que muchos de los datos fueron tomados del valioso trabajo que coordinó el licenciado Alfonso Ortiz Sobalvarro, producto de una consultoría hecha para el Ministerio de Cultura y Deportes en el año 2001, como parte de una asistencia técnica del Banco Mundial. El trabajo se denomina “Estrategia de Reforma Jurídica y normativa para el sector cultura”. Es valioso e importante que los interesados en el tema lo conozcan. Nueva Guatemala de la Asunción, octubre 2005 Nota: Este breviario fue actualizado en el mes de agosto de 2009 por el autor, con el apo yo técnico de investigación y redacción de Brenda Nineth Torres, asistente de la Asesoría Específi ca del Des pa cho Superior del MICUDE, ya que desde su edición en 2005 han surgido nuevas normas. Las Con ven ciones internacionales transcritas en el anexo de este libro fueron ratifi cadas por Guatemala en el 2006, por lo que ya son leyes internas. 7 BREVIARIO DE LEGISLACIÓN CULTURAL CAPÍTULO I DE LA DEFINICIÓN DE CULTURA Y DE LA DEFINICIÓN LEGAL DEL PATRIMONIO CULTURAL DE GUATEMALA I. Defi nición de Cultura Existen muchas defi niciones de cultura, desde la más elemental que dice que cultura es todo lo que el ser humano hace, hasta aquella que la confunde con la acumulación de co no cimientos a través de la educación formal y con la forma de comportarse según las reglas sociales de ca da comunidad, en nuestro caso las del mundo occidental, asimiladas por los gua temaltecos. Sin embargo, para no generar discusiones al respecto, se transcribe la defi nición que los expertos de la UNESCO consensuaron para el anteproyecto de Con ven ción Sobre la Protección y Pro- moción de la Diversidad de las Expresiones Culturales, que dice “se entiende por ‘cultura’ el conjunto de rasgos distintivos espirituales, materiales, in te lec tuales, y afectivos de una so- ciedad o grupo social, que comprende, además de las artes y las letras, los estilos de vida, las formas de convivencia, los sistemas de valores, las tra diciones y las creencias”.1 II. Defi nición legal del Patrimonio Cultural Para los efectos de este trabajo, para que en forma didáctica y legal comprenda lo que es el patri- monio cultural de Guatemala, se consigna el artículo 60 de la Constitución Política de la Repú- blica que dice: “Forman el Patrimonio Cultural de la Nación, los bienes, valores pa leon tológicos, arqueológicos, históricos y artísticos del país”. Este precepto constitucional se com ple menta con los artículos 2 y 3 de la Ley de Protección al Patrimonio Cultural que dicen: Artículo 2. Forman el Patrimonio Cultural de la Nación los bienes e instituciones que por ministerio de ley o por declaratoria de autoridad lo integren y constituyan bienes mue- bles o inmuebles, públicos y privados, relativos a la paleontología, arqueo logía, historia, antropología, arte, ciencia y tecnología y la cultura en general, incluido el Patrimonio in tangible, que coadyuven al fortalecimiento de la identidad nacional”.2 Artículo 3. Clasifi cación. Para los efectos de la presente Ley se consideran bienes que conforman el Patrimonio Cultural de la Nación, los siguientes: Patrimonio cultural tangible a) Bienes culturales inmuebles: 1. La arquitectura y sus elementos, incluida la decoración aplicada. 2. Los grupos de elementos y conjuntos arquitectónicos y de arquitectura vernácula. 3. Los centros y conjuntos históricos, incluyendo las áreas que le sirven de entorno y su paisaje natural. 1 Se refi ere a la versión que como proyecto se conocía en octubre de 2004. 2 La división de Patrimonio Cultural Tangible e Intangible se incorpora por primera vez en la Ley del Patrimonio Cultural de la Nación.

Backstrap weaving, mainly a woman's occupation done in the home, has an ancient history~ver two millennia, although there are few extant examples of the weavings of the ancient Maya due to climatic conditions (Figure 1). The process, however, was documented in ceramic art, and the tradition of handwoven clothing can be seen in monumental stone carvings, murals, and also in ceramic art. Today weavers purchase the yarn called mish already spun and dyed in nearby shops.

  • Ancient Monetization: the Case of Classic Maya Textiles T Joanne P
    Journal of Anthropological Archaeology 49 (2018) 100–113 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Journal of Anthropological Archaeology journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/jaa Ancient monetization: The case of Classic Maya textiles T Joanne P. Baron Bard Early Colleges, BHSEC Newark, 321 Bergen Street, Newark, NJ 07103, United States ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: The role played by individuals, markets, and state institutions in the origins of money have been debated by Money economists, historians, and anthropologists. Two dominant models have emerged: those who see money’s Currency function arising out of exchange, and those who see it arising out of the operation of state institutions. Curiously, Economy archaeology has played only a minor role in this debate, with most scholars focused instead on written records Mesoamerica and ethnographic parallels to recent non-capitalist societies. Scholarship on monetization has also focused Maya primarily on Eurasian currency and the roots of modern capitalism. In this article, I argue that much can be Textiles gained by examining a different context: the origins of textile money in pre-Columbian Mesoamerica, particu- larly among the Late Classic Maya. During this period, textiles underwent a process of monetization that saw them take on the roles of exchange medium, measure of value, means of payment, and store of wealth. I argue that neither of the dominant models of monetization is sufficient to describe this process. Instead, elements of both models operated simultaneously, as households and state institutions negotiated differing economic stra- tegies. 1. Introduction Finally, it serves as a store of wealth or hoard that is kept by those who receive payment, whether in market exchange or outside of it.

BEEKMAN, PhD THE ORIGINAL PERFORMANCE PIECE: SHAFT TOMB (?) FIGURES OF WEST MEXICO Anthropomorphic ceramic figures have been looted from shaft and chamber tombs in western Mexico for well over a century and literally thousands of them exist today in museum collections not to mention those in the hands of private collectors. This has led to a broader interpretation of these figures as “mortuary art”, objects produced with the express intention of accompanying the dead. They have been seen as representations of the deceased, representations of servants accompanying the deceased into the beyond, or representations of the underworld itself. Similar interpretations in the 1960s were made of Maya codex vessels, which were seen as a Maya “Book of the Dead.” Recently however, scholars have noted the evidence of usewear on those figures found in museum collections. Also, fragments and whole figures have been excavated from household and ritual contexts. This lecture will detail those finds and their implications for interpretation of the figures. The shaft tomb figures are interpreted here as mobile art used on multiple occasions before interment with the dead, and many correspond in subject matter to better known forms of storytelling from Mesoamerican art.

  • Mayaness Through Time
    ISSN 1653-2244 MAGISTERUPPSATSER I KULTURANTROPOLOGI – Nr 1 Mayaness Through Time Challenges to ethnic identity and culture from the past to modernity by Ulf Lewin Master Thesis in Cultural Anthropology (20 Swedish credits) Department of Cultural Anthropology and Ethnology Uppsala University Supervisor: Dr. Juan-Carlos Gumucio June 2005 Master Thesis, Uppsala Universitet, Department of Cultural Anthropology and Ethnology, Ulf Lewin, June 2005. Title Mayaness Through Time: Challenges to ethnic identity and culture from the past to modernity . Abstract Some six million people in modern Central America are considered to be “Maya” and thereby descendants of an ethnic group that created one of the great early civilizations of mankind. The present study, in a first section, looks in some detail at how the Maya became a group of its own, slowly separating itself from Mesoamerican neighbors, taking on an ethnic identity, markers and boundaries Attention is paid to what can be considered uniquely Maya and what remained features shared with other groups. This historic section follows the Maya until early colonization. The next section gives an overview of modern Mayaness, activism and Maya claims to preserve and revitalize a supposed heritage, taking it into the 21st century. With the historic section as a mirror and background, the study aims at identifying how Mayaness is maintained through time, how silent testimonies tell us about the use in the past of ethnic and cultural markers. Proofs are given of such elements still alive. The text goes on to discuss the future of Maya ethnic identity and culture, its continuity while changing. Keywords: ethnic identity, ethnicity, culture, Guatemala, Maya, Mayaness, Mesoamerica, Olmecs.
