Sumario:The archaeological observation, recording and visualization exercises, emerging on the horizon that Sudeshna Guha nominates as post-postprocessual, propose various means to access the complexity of the past (with an experiential and cognitive perspective) and exceed the representational character which defines the treatment of photographs in this discipline. One of the emerging aspects of archeology of the image basically abbreviates cross-linked readings of Foucault, Appadurai and Benjamin. Based on the image/strata proposal, the aim of this article is to briefly state the theoretical premises that underlie the archaeological-visual attempt to excavate in the images photographed in archaeological contexts. From these, I dialogue with a photo-archaeological exercise by Jesús Eduardo López, which destabilizes the aestheticizing narrative of ruinization to give light to another sense of temporality, which rescues the geological roots of archaeological stratigraphy and photography.
