Este artículo presentará y discutirá las principales características de los enfoques ontológicos en la arqueología. Influenciados por el “giro ontológico”, estas propuestas sitúan como eje central una preocupación por conocer múltiples realidades a partir de reflexiones sobre la naturaleza misma del ser y la materia. En este artículo propongo trazar el camino teórico que ha conducido a estas reflexiones, destacando el enfoque teórico-metodológico propuesto por Benjamin Alberti, llamado de arqueología ontológica recursiva. A lo largo de este estudio pretendo mostrar las bases de este enfoque, así como su potencial uso y límites. Creo que la reflexión sobre cualquier enfoque teórico es un ejercicio importante para ampliar las discusiones y proporcionar nuevas comprensiones dentro de la propia teoría arqueológica. Este artigo apresentará e discutirá as principais características das abordagens ontológicas em arqueologia. Influenciadas pela “virada ontológica”, estas propostas colocam como eixo central a preocupação de conhecer realidades múltiplas a partir de reflexões sobre a própria natureza do ser e da matéria. Neste artigo proponho traçar o percurso teórico que conduziu a estas reflexões, destacando a abordagem teórico-metodológica proposta por Benjamin Alberti, denominada arqueologia ontológica recursiva. Ao longo deste estudo pretendo mostrar as bases desta abordagem, bem como as suas potencialidades de utilização e limites. Acredito que a reflexão sobre qualquer abordagem teórica é um exercício importante para ampliar as discussões e proporcionar novos entendimentos dentro da própria teoria arqueológica.

| description |
This article will present and discuss the main characteristics of the ontological approaches in archaeology. Influenced by the “ontological turn”, this approach places as its central axis a concern for knowing multiple realities based on reflections on the very nature of being and matter. In this article I propose to trace the theoretical path that led to these reflections, highlighting the theoretical-methodological approach proposed by Benjamin Alberti, which has been called recursive ontological archaeology. Throughout this study I intend to show the bases of this approach, as well as its potential use and limits. I believe that reflection on any theoretical approach is an important exercise to broaden discussions and provide new understandings within archaeological theory itself.
