This essay examines the tensions between dispossession and representation surrounding the manteño seats, reflecting on their reinterpretation through art and community practices. By exploring specific cases in international and national museums, it highlights how these archaeological objects emerge as symbols of resistance and historical reinterpretation. The images accompanying this text are part of the processes and outcomes of the artistic project RUMOR, carried out in 2023 in collaboration with the Association for the Rescue of Ancestral Pottery from La Pila.
