Faldellines del Período Formativo en el Norte Grande: un ensayo acerca de la historia de su construcción visual
Abstract
A partir de investigaciones precedentes2 se caracterizó el atuendo presentado por las pinturas antropomorfas de la cuenca alta del río Salado, principal tributario del Loa, siendo el faldellín la única vestimenta textil representada. Desde esta sistematización, con claros correlatos cronológicos, se abordan las figuras con faldellines presentes en sitios de Pisagua, Quebradas Aroma y Guatacondo y San Pedro de Atacama. Este es un ejercicio que intenta, desde la mirada iconológica y el conocimiento arqueológico, una aproximación a ciertas soluciones formales en el ámbito de la representación plana, sus tendencias temporales, además de profundizar en la comprensión interpretativa sobre los aspectos sociales y culturales contenidos en las representaciones que exhibe esta prenda.
Palabras claves: Norte Grande de Chile – representación – iconología – faldellines – arte rupestre – textiles.
On the basis of previous research, this paper characterizes the attire worn by the anthropomorphic paintings located in the high basin sites of the river Salado (the main tributary of the Loa), the fringed pubiccovering being the only piece of clothing that is represented. Learning on this systematization and its clear chronological correlates, we considered figures from sites in Pisagua, the gorges of Aroma and Guatacondo and San Pedro de Atacama that also have fringed pubic coverings. This exercise is an approximation to certain formal solutions in the field of flat representations from an iconological perspective based on archaeological evidence and its temporal tendencies, in order to deepen our understanding of the social and cultural aspects evidenced by the representations exhibiting this garment.
Key Words: Northern Chile – representation – iconology
– fringed pubic covering – rock art – textiles.
