ETHNOGRAPHY. ANTHROPOLOGICAL METHODOLOGY TO VALUE THE CULTURE OF THE MUD IN AN ADULT HIGHER LIVING HERITAGE ANTHROPOLOGICAL METHODOLOGY TO VALUE THE CULTURE OF THE MUD IN AN ADULT HIGHER LIVING HERITAGE

Abstract

This essay is a product of the experiences lived in the JM Cruxent Learning Community in coordination with the Territorial Polytechnic University of Mérida Kléber Ramírez (UPTMKR) and the Laboratory Classroom for the Conservation and Restoration of Archaeological and Paleontological Assets (ALab-CRBAP) of the University National Experimental Francisco de Miranda (UNEFM), said learning community being guided by Professor Camilo Morón. From this scenario I present a theoretical-experiential-investigative review essay to show the benefits of ethnography as a methodology of anthropology in order to delve into the experience of Jesús (Chucho) Morillo known as the “Mud Man” as a staging from his experience, the potential to preserve the culture and feel of a people. The methodology used was the specialized documentary review which allowed us to take a tour of the theorists who contribute to the topics of ethnography, anthropology, culture and tradition, allowing me to recognize how transcendental the human being is in the synapse that he does with his environment. Understand and interpret it from your own experience.
