摘要:Starting by some of the concerns that were considered in the Age of the Enlightenment, we annalize Creoles and Spaniards´ proposals to the knowledge of the Pre- Columbian antiquities and fine arts between the end of the 18 th century and the beginning of the 19 th century. We will verify that, during this period, fine arts started to be considered a reflection of a society´s attaintments. As a result, they became an unavoidable component in the placing that a civilization occupied in what contemporaneously was called “the Great Map of Mankind”.
