    Os Anales del Museo Nacional de México
    (2017) Ana Carolina Machado
    This article proposes to analyze the Anales del Museo Nacional de Mexico, created in 1877 by the National Museum of Mexico, as an instrument of construction of Mexican national identity and history. From the theoretical perspectives of Cultural History, with the discussion of memory and history, the intention is to develop a new idea to the debate on the Mexican political and intellectual context and on the study of the pre-Columbian past for the construction of a national identity. The Anales were a magazine that emphasized historical, anthropological, archaeological, botanical and zoological studies of objects belonging to the pre-Hispanic societies. The publication represents an effort by the board of the National Museum of Mexico in making public this material.
