ABSTRACT The study of childhood is a constantly growing thematic area in sociocultural and biological anthropology and archaeology. Archaeologists and anthropologists from Mexico and, in particular, in Yucatán have been regular contributors to this emerging field. In this regard, this paper will address the study of Yucatecan childhood from the material culture used by children of hacienda San Pedro Cholul. The daily lives of these children, who inhabited a henequen hacienda in Yucatán during the late nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth century, will be examined through their material culture such as toys, clothing, historical documents and pictures. This evidence also enables us to discuss the role that children played in the socialization of the productive process and issues of child labour during Yucatán’s Gilded Age (1873–1925).
