: The Colombian armed conflict caused specific Afro-descendant communities to sustain multiple and generalized human rights violations. The Inter-American system for the protection of human rights, of which Colombia is a part, recognized the damages caused in ethnic/ancestral territories, in order to guarantee adequate reparations to the victims. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate the differential ethnic impact of the armed conflict. To do so, we use an intersectional perspective that includes the way in which anthropological expertise is integrated into the appraisal conducted by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (hereinafter “IACHR Court”). The paper is intended to contribute to victim recognition and reparation. Using a qualitative approach, the theoretical framework is based on the case study of the Afro-descendant communities displaced from the Cacarica river basin. The case illustrates how the rights of victims to truth, justice, and reparation appeal to social and forensic anthropology to ensure the recognition of the damages caused and to vindi-cate the victims’ and their families’ right to memory. In view of the multiplicity of affectations that characterize forced displacement in Colombia, we present a pioneer case in the jurisprudence of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (an example par excellence of how to understand the affectation of rights from an ethnic/ancestral and gender perspective): that of the communities
哥伦比亚武装冲突使特定的非洲裔社区遭受多次和普遍的侵犯人权行为。哥伦比亚是美洲保护人权制度的一部分,该制度承认在族裔/祖传领土上造成的损害,以便保证向受害者提供充分赔偿。本文的目的是证明武装冲突对种族的不同影响。为此,我们使用交叉视角,包括将人类学专业知识整合到美洲人权法院(以下简称“美洲人权法院”)进行的评估中的方式。本文旨在对受害者的认识和赔偿作出贡献。采用定性方法,理论框架是基于从卡卡里卡河流域流离失所的非洲后裔社区的案例研究。该案件说明了受害者获得真相、正义和赔偿的权利如何诉诸社会和法医人类学,以确保承认所造成的损害,并维护受害者及其家属的记忆权。鉴于哥伦比亚被迫流离失所的多重影响因素,我们提出了美洲人权法院(Inter-American Court of Human Rights)法理中的一个先锋案例(一个从种族/祖先和性别角度理解权利影响因素的杰出例子):社区

: The article analyzes the geopolitics of becoming a digital searcher using the transmissions produced by the Madres Buscadoras de Sonora collective from the crematoriums and clandestine graves identified between December 23, 2020 and July 9, 2021 in the valley of Guaymas in the south of the state of Sonora, Mexico. The study is intended to highlight that the Madres’ search is immersed in a process of de-territorialized governmental necropolitical victimization, which drives them to go into the analyzed area. The work is based on the digital observation of the collective’s social network transmissions and on an interview with the leader during the protest that took place outside the Attorney General’s Office (FGR) on October 11, 2021, three months after the murder of Aranza Ramos Gurrola. The paper’s contribution lies in reconstructing the geography of the transmissions broadcast at the indicated place and time. It is argued that such transmissions are a way of sustaining low-resolution digital searching. For the Madres, becoming searchers is a task that involves maintaining a mobile digital infrastructure to translate the barbarism they encounter into a citizen forensis . The article shows that the Madres Buscadoras de Sonora’s pursuit of becoming digital searchers is immersed in a governmental necropolitics that does not produce citizens but
本文使用Madres Buscadoras de Sonora集体从2020年12月23日至2021年7月9日在墨西哥索诺拉州南部瓜伊马斯山谷发现的火葬场和秘密坟墓中产生的传输数据,分析了成为数字搜索者的地缘政治。该研究旨在强调,马德雷夫妇的搜索是沉浸在一个去领土化的政府死亡政治受害者的过程中,这促使他们进入所分析的区域。这项工作是基于对集体社交网络传输的数字观察,以及在2021年10月11日,即Aranza Ramos Gurrola被谋杀三个月后,在总检察长办公室(FGR)外举行的抗议活动中对领导人的采访。本文的贡献在于重建了在指定地点和时间播放的传输地理。有人认为,这种传输是维持低分辨率数字搜索的一种方式。对马德雷夫妇来说,成为搜索者是一项任务,包括维护一个移动数字基础设施,将他们遇到的野蛮行为转化为公民法医。这篇文章表明,Buscadoras de Sonora女士对成为数字搜索者的追求,陷入了一种政府的死亡政治,这种政治不会产生公民,而是

: Buscadora collectives in Mexico have developed unique and trans-formative forensic practices to search for their disappeared loved ones. We examine the work of three collectives, each working in distinct political, ecological, and historical contexts to better understand emergent forms of local citizen-led forensic practice. Attending to spaces, that exist alongside but exceed contemporary forensic practice, we critically reexamine the practice of forensics in the context of the humanitarian and forensic ‘crisis’ in Mexico. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork and interviews with forensic scientists and buscadora collectives between 2015-2022, we develop three case studies that analyze the collectives’ work in three registers: the (inter)relational, the geo-logic, and the more-than-human. We argue for the emergence of a deep forensics based on collective practices that privilege fragile, multi-valent forms of knowledge production, attend to slow violence, and move beyond an exclusively human-centered episteme. These alternative practices have the potential to displace the crisis time of contemporary state-led forensics and better document the entangled contexts of ‘stratigraphic violence’ in contemporary Mexico allowing for an emergent more-than-human justice.

: Forensic anthropology is now considered an instrument that supports the justice system and humanitarian forensic action. It contributes with its specialized knowledge to the different stages and procedures of the judicial investigation, and to humanitarian work. One of its specific contributions is laboratory analysis, where the forensic anthropologist, through his scientific knowledge (e.g., human osteology) supports identification and the determina-tion of the manner and cause of death. However, in Colombia, the work of the forensic anthropologist falls within the framework of the medical-legal autopsy and is even immersed in it, so that its scope and objectives tend to be invisible in the field of inquest into deaths. This article reflects on the relationship between forensic anthropology and forensic-medical-legal autopsy. It begins with an assessment of the current context of the search for and identification of missing persons, then determines how forensic-medical-legal autopsy and anthropological work are linked in the legal context and, finally, presents a discussion on the relationship between theory and practice in forensic anthropological analysis. This article therefore presents the challenges facing the discipline, such as the consolidation of its theoretical-scientific foundation and the updating of standards and/or procedures in which necropsy and forensic anthropology merge. The purpose of the above is to highlight its scope and objectives, the role of the anthropologist in the analysis phase and the importance of his or her findings in a legal context. The article invites other researchers to delve deeper into the issues discussed in this reflection and contributes to the discussion on strengthening the scientific basis of the discipline and its relationship with academia.

: The International Criminal Tribunal for former Yugoslavia (ICTY) was established in 1993. Intended to shed light on the events that occurred during the Yugoslav conflict (1992-1995) and to prosecute and convict those accused of crimes against human rights and international humanitarian law, it’s mandate lasted until 2017. This paper was prompted precisely by this end. It takes stock of the contributions of archaeology and forensic anthropology to the Tribunal’s investigations and argues that the work of these professionals provided evidence of the systematic attack in which civilians were killed as part of a state policy of extermination against ethnic and reli-gious groups in the region. The authors also point out the importance of the involvement of Latin American professionals in this research, as well as how much this experience enriched research processes in Latin America itself. This work is based on a systematic bibliographic search, which includes, among other documents, archives that were reserved at the time, but are now open to the public. It also draws on information obtained from the authors’ participation in the forensic operations conducted between 1999 and 2001, both in the field and in the morgue.

: Since the end of the twentieth century, the work of forensic professio-nals in contexts of war has become a topic of particular interest, among other reasons, because of its importance in the clarification of serious human rights violations. The purpose of this article is to characterize the experience of frustration and emotional management strategies used by forensic anthropologists working in the context of the Colombian armed conflict. Using semi-struc-tured interviews with ten forensic anthropologists working in the search for victims of enforced disappearance in Colombia, along with autobiographical analysis, the authors identify the strategies through which forensic professio-nals manage frustration in a context of armed conflict and political violence. All interviews were held in Bogota in 2019. The forensic anthropologists interviewed were found to be confronted with potential sources of frustration such as complex political scenarios, difficulties of the geographical context to carry out the search processes, long-lasting situations of impunity, and high expectations of the victims’ families to find their loved ones’ remains. The article thus describes the ways in which forensic anthropologists emotionally manage these difficulties in order to maintain their motivation and efforts to continue their work. The authors employ a novel perspective to explore the emotional management of the impacts of work in contexts of political violence and war, revealing the importance of research that allows us to recognize the subject involved before the pain of others.

: The purpose of this article is to expand on the information available on the Loco river basin rock art sites in Peru. To this end, a contextual analysis is applied within the landscape where they are framed, to infer the territory’s occupation modalities, the relations between places, and the cultural behaviors of the inhabitants of the valley in pre-Hispanic times. We present a new holistic reading of these sites which includes the charac-terization of the basin’s landscape to then focus on the art itself, including, formal characteristics, associations, conventions, and arrangements on the panels. On the baisis of this study, we propose a cultural sequence for two of the shelters. These are unique contexts which establish the use and tempo-rality of these sites, from their initial occupation by hunter-gatherer groups, probably during the Pleistocene to Holocene transition and subsequently their use by horticulturalists during the Early Intermediate Period. The spatial and contextual data obtained are discussed and compared with that on other known sites in the region. In turn, this opens up new perspectives related to topographies and ritual behaviors associated to rock-art.

: From a gender perspective and through contextual and bioar-chaeological studies of women found in the Pucará de Tilcara, Quebrada de Humahuaca, we propose to analyze and determine differences in social status and funerary practices. The Pucará de Tilcara has a vast collection of human skeletal remains, so far consisting of 227, mostly male, individuals. We analyzed the archaeological contexts of recent systematic excavations and established the sets of remains found in collections, by examining the entry numbers of the museum catalogs. We also estimated sex, age, and signs of the presence of artificial skull deformation. In relation to mortuary practices that can provide information on social divisions between women and men, as we deepened the bioanthropological and archaeological studies of the samples, we understood that there are no marked differences in terms of biological sex or exclusivity in the demarcation of gender. The differences detected in the various types of mortuary treatment occur in both female and male contexts. This first characterization of the type of mortuary treatment once again reflects on the manifestations of gender identity in pre-Hispanic Andean societies. In conclusion, the evidence shows that there was a wide range of forms of positioning within society, both in life and during death, in which pre-Hispanic gender expressions did not occur as it was considered for centuries, that is, as a consequence of a Western imposition.

We also estimated sex, age, and signs of the presence of artificial skull deformation. In relation to mortuary practices that can provide information on social divisions between women and men, as we deepened the bioanthropological and archaeological studies of the samples, we understood that there are no marked differences in terms of biological sex or exclusivity in the demarcation of gender. The differences detected in the various types of mortuary treatment occur in both female and male contexts. This first characterization of the type of mortuary treatment once again reflects on the manifestations of gender identity in pre-Hispanic Andean societies. In conclusion, the evidence shows that there was a wide range of forms of positioning within society, both in life and during death, in which pre-Hispanic gender expressions did not occur as it was considered for centuries, that is, as a consequence of a Western imposition.","PeriodicalId":341210,"journal":{"name":"Antípoda.
