 The Sulphur of Ollagüe 
This article provides a look at a set of photographs to study the economic and socio-cultural transformations that occurred, during the 20th century in Ollagüe, an Indigenous community in northern Chile. Industrial ruins and the material remains of sulphur mining in the indigenous community of Ollagüe, are privileged witnesses of a period that, in the industrial utopia of the 20th century, longed for regional and national economic development. Photographs allow for an interpretation based on experience and memory. They also allow reflection on an archaeological discipline that could contribute to the understanding of the local context of a complex modernity, with its own experiences and qualities.
