Summary
Book dedicated to the work of the Mayan kaqchikel collective "Kaqjay Moloj", the community archaeology, and the memory of Guatemalan genocide.The collective of archaeologists, photographers, activists, anthropologists, historians and people from the region that since 2006 has been in charge of a community museum in the town of Patzicia, in Chimaltenango (Guatemala), dedicated to local history, the memory of guatemalan genocide and the questioning of modern notions of identity, subject and state, as an effort to rething traditional archaeology and its use in the consolidation of hegemony and national narratives. This collection of photographic portraits of the people killed or disappeared during the armed conflict of Patzicia, mainly in the eighties. The intention is to build memory, but not from the official history, but on a par with the historical construction that is made from the subalternity of the communities and the people.ʺ (HKB Translation) Booklet.
