EL CASO DE LA VITRINA 2 DE LA COLECCIÓN SÁNCHEZ ARAÑA (SANTA LUCÍA, GRAN CANARIA) ALBERTO BARROSO, Verónica ALAMÓN NÚÑEZ, Marta SUÁREZ MEDINA, Ibán MENDOZA MEDINA Félix MORENO BENÍTEZ, Marco Antonio Tibicena. Arqueología y Patrimonio, S.L. Gran Canaria DELGADO DARIAS, Teresa El Museo Canario Se presentan los resultados del estudio de la Vitrina 2 de la Sala de Antropología del Museo Castillo de la Fortaleza El Hao, en Santa Lucía, procedente de la colección Vicente Sánchez Araña. Según se indica en la etiqueta de referencia el contenido de la vitrina corresponde a una cueva funeraria de los antiguos canarios, barranco de Guayadeque, cuya recuperación se produjo en 1950. Se trataba de un depósito colectivo que el responsable del Museo calificó como sepulcro familiar y situó cronológicamente en el siglo I dC. No obstante, la veracidad de esta información es cuestionable pues no hay certeza de que todos los componentes de la vitrina procedan de la misma cueva, ni siquiera del mismo contexto geográfico. Todo parece indicar que la escena que se recrea no corresponde a la realidad funeraria de ningún sepulcro y solo es una composición con arreglo a los intereses expositivos del responsable del Museo. Es un ejemplo de cómo durante mucho tiempo se ha funcionado en instituciones y espacios dedicados a la exposición del Patrimonio Arqueológico, donde la manipulación y la recreación, cuando no la falsificación de evidencias, constituía una práctica común. En este caso, la visión del artífice muestra una comprensión del fenómeno funerario interesante que permite valorar en el contexto del momento cómo se construye el conocimiento sobre el pasado aborigen insular.

There was a constant fear of epidemics arriving by sea, not only because of the potentially high death toll, but because it could have a seriously detrimental effect on trade. As well as the local impact of disease, health control was important because the Canary Islands acted as an important buffer zone in the control of infection in the Spanish–American trade.

  • TENERIFE Introduction
    TENERIFE Introduction: The Hotel Troya works on a daily basis to develop its business in a more responsible way with the environment and the community. The sustainable tourism requires an improved protection of the natural environments, and ensure that the local communities benefit from this visiting. Therefore, we would like to introduce you this guide, with some destination suggestions. Environmental information: The Teide, the Teno and Anaga massifs, the beaches of rocks and black sand, the underwater bottoms... The unique landscape of Tenerife is the result of the volcanism that, over millions of years, has shaped its territory. Its numerous peculiarities, or the currently still unknown details about the origin and the geological evolution of Tenerife, explain the enormous scientific interest that the volcanic activity of the Island arouses. But Tenerife is much more, an amazing island, due to its diversity, climate and authenticity... We can find exuberant laurisilva forests of the Tertiary era, or cozy coves of hidden beaches where you can cool off with a good swim in the sea. Tenerife is also a transit zone for migratory birds, for whale watching, and a place for the growth and development of endemic fauna and flora. Discover their colors, flavors, sun and volcanic nature. A place with an exclusive charm. GreenBook 1 THE NATURAL SPACES Teide National Park: It was declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 2007 with the category of Natural Asset. It is also a European Diploma by the Council of Europe and forms part of the Natura 2000 Network Places. And reasons for receiving such recognitions are not lacking.

    “Debemos evitar la destrucción de cada muro viejo, de cada distribución, de cada vivienda en donde el tiempo haya dejado rastro histórico. Su desaparición borraría para siempre un pasado lleno de sentido y de sabiduría aprendida por experiencia de siglos en observación y necesidad de su clima, de su latitud, de su viento, de su luz y de un increíble paisaje que determinaban un resultado de maneras de hacer, que no se puede improvisar en un corto espacio de tiempo.” César Manrique (1919-1992) El Centro de documentación de Canarias y América (CEDOCAM) dedica su nuevo monográfico al Patrimonio de Tenerife. Nuestro patrimonio cultural es una parte fundamental de nuestra identidad como comunidad y a nivel individual. El patrimonio también es clave para entender a otros pueblos y contribuye al diálogo entre civilizaciones y culturas. En este monográfico, realizado en relación al vídeo sobre Patrimonio de Tenerife elaborado por el área de Patrimonio de Museos de Tenerife y el Museo de Historia y Antropología de Tenerife, podrán encontrar una cuidada selección bibliográfica y documental (monografías, artículos, separatas...) así como páginas web y vídeos sobre cuestiones relacionadas con el patrimonio de Tenerife: molinos, lagares, caseríos, plazas, hornos, eras, jardines... 1 BIBLIOGRAFÍA DEL CEDOCAM ALEMÁN, Gilberto.
