Abstract

The reflection on research methodologies continues inspiring a wide disciplinary debate which updates according to new challenges in the research field. In this opportunity, this article contributes with some theoretical &ndash methodological considerations related to the anthropological analysis of local and indigenous knowledge systems and its transmission regarding the production of material culture. Within this frame, we present a comparative case of study between two communities in Argentina from the Social Network Analysis perspective. In particular, we argue on some aspects of scientific research including the course of data collection, its processing, the construction of ethnographic data, and the elaboration of an analytic model. Thus, we expect to contribute to a fundamental discussion pointing at consolidate the application of different methodological designs and its uses in Anthropology.
