Abstract

This article presents an approach to study marronage from the perspective of critical social archaeology, which encompasses the perpetuation of several layers of racial violence endured by the Afro-Ecuadorian population as legacies of slavery and colonialism. Collaborative and community-based projects in the ancestral Afro-Ecuadorian territories of the Chota Valley and Esmeraldas, and in the city of Guayaquil, are a basis for mapping Afro-Ecuadorian resistance strategies in the hacienda, urban, palenque, and border contexts. Marronage, as a response to racial oppression and systemic exploitation, has transformed over time, demonstrating the agency of the Afro-Ecuadorian community against structural violence. Archaeology illuminates the Maroon experience and its legacy in ancestral historical memory by including a critical study of slavery in the household context of plantation settings, identifying the dynamics of oppression and resistance, mapping routes of fugitivity, and examining the networks connecting actions of marronage. This study is an essential step in reconstructing the neglected history of Afro-Ecuadorian resistance and its role in shaping Latin America.

让栗色考古学家面对厄瓜多尔的种族暴力
本文提出了一种从批判社会考古学的角度研究婚姻的方法,其中包括非洲裔厄瓜多尔人作为奴隶制和殖民主义遗产所忍受的几层种族暴力的延续。在乔塔河谷和埃斯梅拉达斯等非洲裔厄瓜多尔祖传领土以及瓜亚基尔市开展的合作和社区项目,是绘制庄园、城市、帕伦克和边境地区非洲裔厄瓜多尔人抵抗战略的基础。作为对种族压迫和系统性剥削的回应,Marronage随着时间的推移发生了变化,显示了非洲裔厄瓜多尔人社区反对结构性暴力的力量。考古学通过对种植园家庭背景下的奴隶制的批判性研究,识别压迫和抵抗的动态,绘制逃亡路线,以及检查连接婚姻行为的网络,阐明了栗子人的经历及其在祖先历史记忆中的遗产。这项研究是重建被忽视的非洲-厄瓜多尔抵抗历史及其在塑造拉丁美洲中的作用的重要一步。
