Cultural heritage and Indigenous heritage collections Sample Clauses

Cultural heritage and Indigenous heritage collections. The concept of cultural heritage responds to changing global conditions that have shifted from contextualizing tangible cultural goods toward including intangible manifestations and traditions (Xxxxxx et al. 2013; Xxxxxxx 2001). Applying this concept to a local interpretation in the Dominican Republic, it is congruent with how culture is defined in the Dominican constitution, namely as the collectively assumed characteristics of a people’s lifestyle (Congreso Nacional de la República Dominicana, Ley 41-00 of 2000). While cultural heritage is equated with the expression of tangible and intangible goods, values, and symbols of the nation, the definition encompasses a comprehensive list of artistic and cultural forms (Congreso Nacional de la República Dominicana, Ley 41-00 of 2000) but leaves out the recognition of Indigenous heritage from its definition. The earliest heritage legislation also recognized the cultural value of archaeological objects, as they were considered to be “national monuments to be conserved for the glory of the Republic” (Congreso Nacional de la República Dominicana, Decreto 4347 of 1903 paragraph 1). The objects were later designated to be under the state’s permanent care (Congreso Nacional de la República Dominicana, Ley 318 of 1968), regardless of whether they were in public or private hands. This designation is also found in the French legislation for historical monuments (Congreso Nacional de la República Dominicana, Ley de 1913), as well as in the Spanish legislation, where the nation’s historical riches are said to constitute part of the National Cultural Treasures (Xxxxxxx 2001). Categorizing archaeological objects as relics that require conservation to legislatively make them property of the state marked a significant shift in preserving and protecting the nation’s cultural heritage. For the purposes of the present research, Dominican Indigenous heritage collections are considered to comprise archaeological artifacts that were created by the Indigenous population of the Caribbean between 6000 and 500 years ago, can still be found in the Dominican Republic, and may be under either public or private care. This definition stems from the recognized neglect identified in the language of the first piece of heritage legislation, which declared archaeological objects the property of the state in order to preserve them. The legislative text also recommended that the government needed to create a national museum to house the antiquities...

For example, Anthropology 120 can fulfill (3) units of the Behavioral Science requirement and (3) units of the Cultural Diversity requirement.
