description This article is an iconography study of the pictorial compositions of the funerary urns of the Napo phase (1168-1480 AD ), framed within the vast Amazonian polychrome tradition. This iconographic approach is complemented by a semiotic and ethno-archaeological methodology which allowed for the identification of specific patterns in the construction of these designs. These figures intrinsic to a “Napo aesthetic” can be understood as a system of visual communication about the artistic structure of this archaeological phase.

El presente artículo tiene como objetivo el estudio iconográfico de las composiciones pictóricas de las urnas funerarias de la fase Napo (1168-1480 D.C.) enmarcada dentro de la amplia tradición Polícroma Amazónica. Esta aproximación iconográfica se complementa con una metodología semiótica y etnoarqueológica, las mismas que permitieron la identificación de patrones específicos en la construcción de estos diseños. Estas figuraciones intrínsecas a una “estética Napo” pueden ser entendidas como un sistema de comunicación visual sobre la estructuración artística de esta fase arqueológica.  Centro de Publicaciones Pontificia Universidad Católica del Ecuador 2019-10-25 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículos evaluados por pares application/pdf http://cuadernosdeantropologia-puce.edu.ec/index.php/antropologia/article/view/188 10.26807/ant.v0i21.188 Antropología Cuadernos de Investigación; Núm. 21 (2019): Pensar las masculinidades; 91-110 2631-2506 1390-4256 10.26807/ant.v0i21 spa http://cuadernosdeantropologia-puce.edu.ec/index.php/antropologia/article/view/188/139 Derechos de autor 2019 Antropología Cuadernos de investigación
