Abstract
El objetivo de la presente contribución es el
de profundizar en la temática más general de la
relación entre arqueología y africanismo en los
inicios del régimen franquista, así como sobre todo
documentar la protagonista actividad al respecto
del jefe centralizado de la arqueología española,
Julio Martínez Santa-Olalla. Estas actividades han
sido analizadas en otras ocasiones en relación sobre
todo al Sahara o a Guinea, sin embargo no se había
constatado que un interés inusitado inicial se había
centrado en el Norte de Marruecos, donde entre
1939 y 1941 el Comisario General de Excavaciones
había realizado nada menos que cuatro viajes. Fue
la oposición a sus actividades, sobre todo de Pelayo
Quintero que estaba al frente de la arqueología en el
Protectorado español, la que influyó en el desvío de
su interés hacia otros lugares de África.
The aim of the present contribution is to penetrate into the most general matter of the relation between archaeology and Africanism into the beginnings of the pro-Franco regime, as well as especially focus the study in the activity conducted by the chief of the Spanish archaeology, Julio Martínez Santa-Olalla. These activities have been analyzed in other occasions in relation especially to the Sahara or to Guinea, nevertheless there had not been stated that an unusual initial interest had centred on the North of Morocco, where between 1939 and 1941 the Commissioner General of Excavations had realized nothing less than four trips. It was the opposition to his activities, especially of Pelayo Quintero who was at the head of the archaeology in the Spanish Protectorate, which influenced the detour of his interest towards other places of Africa.
