Description
Summary:This article reconsiders the development of the National Museum of Mexico in the early years of the twentieth century by studying the activities of a variety of actors that, alongside its professors and directors, facilitated the production of knowledge regarding its collections. It considers the museum’s different workers to be one of the conditions of possibility for making this ecosystem into a space for research, education and scientific exhibition. Their role has been erased through many different mechanisms, including the historiography itself, even though their work has come down through a variety of material formats, such as archives, replicas and photographs.
