| dc.description | A monographic volume like the present one was much needed. First, it was necessary to display the richness and diversity of the archaeologies of Iberian colonialism. With the inclusion of Scandinavia, Africa and Latin America, historical archaeology is becoming truly global and, therefore, more balanced in geographical and cultural terms. It would be wrong, however, to consider that including Latin America in the wider picture is just an issue of increasing diversity: in fact, the second reason why a volume like this is crucial for the development of historical archaeology is that there can be no archaeological understanding of modernity and capitalism (whatever these concepts mean) without Latin America. As decolonial thinkers, such as Aníbal Quijano and Enrique Dussel, have made abundantly clear, the regions conquered by Spain and Portugal are not just another area colonized by Europe; they are the cradle of coloniality. The place where all began: from racism to predatory capitalism and also novel forms of challenging or evading colonial power | - |
