Signos, símbolos y mitos en una cultura arqueológica norandina
Éste es uno de los pocos estudios de “iconografía” en arqueología colombiana y ecuatoriana. El autor interpreta uno de los “discursos” codificados en las aparentes decoraciones de los platos de ofrendas que empleaban las culturas Piartal y Tuza, del altiplano ecuatoriano-colombiano. Las decoraciones en cuestión son en realidad símbolos que el autor descifró y que aluden al mito de la Creación. Para llegar a sus afirmaciones, recurre al gran instrumental de la Historia de la Cultura y al explicar estos recursos – bien conocidos por los etnólogos– convierte muchas de las páginas de este estudio en un libro de texto.
Al encontrar un sorprendente paralelo del papel que jugó el firmamento estrellado en esas culturas americanas y en el Egipto antiguo, no sólo explica al lector qué es Paralelismo y qué es Difusión, sino que propone un término nuevo: el de “Dormancia cultural”.
