Abstract
Este trabajo presenta una serie de resultados producto de investigaciones recientes efectuadas en el sitio arqueológico Rosa María (C-29 RM) y en el Monumento Nacional Guayabo (C-365 MNG), que ponen en evidencia un vínculo directo entre ciertas representaciones hechas sobre piedra (petrograbados) y algunas estructuras antiguas de carácter hidráulico. De tal forma, metodológicamente, se realiza un acercamiento a través de la recolección de datos en campo y el procesamiento espacial de los mismos que permiten efectuar la asociación de ciertos motivos y su ubicación en estas obras ingenieriles antiguas. Lo cual finalmente permite discutir y hacer interpretaciones concretas acerca de (1) el posible significado/ interpretación y (2) la funcionalidad de dichos grabados; esto de acuerdo a los datos directos obtenidos a partir del estudio de la arquitectura y el manejo de las aguas en el Caribe precolombino de Costa Rica.
This paper presents the results of recent investigations carried out in the Rosa Maria archaeological site (C-29 RM) and in the Guayabo National Monument (C-365 MNG), which reveal a direct link between certain representations made on rocks (petroglyphs) and some ancient hydraulic structures. Thus, it provides a methodological approach based on field data recolection and its spatial analysis that enable to prove the association of certain motives and its location on those ancient engineering structures. With this in mind, the article discusses and establish context interpretations about (1) their possible meaning/interpretation and (2) the function of those engravings, this according to direct scientific data obtained product of the study of Pre-Columbian Costa Rica´s water management practices and architecture.
