During the excavation, an amazing amount of historic material never studied before was discovered inside a sealed privy. After studying the material, we were able to identify the objects as once belonging to Santiago de Liniers, a man who successfully resisted and expelled British invaders from Buenos Aires. As a result, he was appointed Viceroy, though eventually he was shot in 1810 for confronting the Independence movement. Our hypothesis is that these objects were thrown into the privy as a gesture of contempt associated with his capture and execution. © Springer Science + Business Media, Inc. 2005. 2005 https://bibliotecadigital.exactas.uba.ar/collection/paper/document/paper_10927697_v9_n3_p195_Schavelzon http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12110/paper_10927697_v9_n3_p195_Schavelzon |
