In this article, we would like to share some thoughts related to the values and principles implemented by archaeologists when bringing ‘the other’ into focus. We situate our reflections within the archaeology of modern colonialism, and revisit some aspects related to one of the most vibrant issues in historical archaeology: Eurocentrism. It is our understanding that ‘de-Eurocentring’ the discipline not only requires introducing the disenfranchised as new agents, but also questioning the most profound logics by which narratives of the past have been written. We focus on the idea of history as change, and on the notion of social continuity from a feminist standpoint. We have noticed that certain accounts of colonial situations, even those with the opposite intention, may project the prevailing Western male way of being while trying to explain past social and personal dynamics, thus blurring ontological diversity and unwittingly reinforcing the Eurocentrism we are trying to avoid.

现代殖民主义、欧洲中心主义和历史考古学：一些产生的思想

在本文中，我们想分享一些与考古学家在关注“他者”时所实施的价值观和原则相关的想法。我们将我们的反思置于现代殖民主义考古学中，并重新审视与历史考古学中最活跃的问题之一相关的一些方面：欧洲中心主义。我们的理解是，“去欧洲中心化”这门学科不仅需要将被剥夺权利的人作为新的代理人引入，而且还需要质疑过去叙事所依据的最深刻的逻辑。我们关注历史是变化的概念，以及从女权主义的角度来看社会连续性的概念。我们注意到对殖民情况的某些描述，即使是那些相反的意图，
