Abstract

In this paper we propose to re-think the interpretative discourses of heritage from a critical, reflexive and feminist perspective, within the conceptual framework of Public Archaeology and Gender Archaeology. Museums and interpretation centres, as also similar formulas, are some of the few spaces where society can approach the past and heritage. We start with the study of the discourses constructed around a specific past, prehistoric, and in a concrete territory, Galicia. In addition, we present a specific proposal for intervention for action in the interpretation centre of the Archaeological Park of Rock Art (Campo Lameiro, Pontevedra). This is a pilot experience in which heritage coeducation is applied as a strategy to introduce other inclusive and egalitarian ways of understanding the past, integrating the perspectives of Gender Archaeology in the interpretative discourses.
