Meriño 310-B, archaeological pieces from the 16th century recovered in the First City of the Americas. Valorization of a chicoid-style vessel from the Taíno culture, indigenous pieces with possible origins beyond the Antilles islands, ceramics of Italian and Spanish origin, decorated and glazed to serve food (plates and bowls), and other table service pieces (a stoneware liquor storage container and oil jugs), common pottery made from clay (lids, stoves or braziers, basins, chamber pots, and jars of various sizes), and decorative elements (bronze lock, tile fragments, a portion of gargoyle and molding), as well as fragments of ceramics used for metal casting or crucibles. The history, a testimony to everyday life, is connected with a figure from the Spanish colonial era. The pieces were recovered during excavations as part of the archaeological studies of the property. Given the socio-historical and cultural value, the findings underwent a careful and systematic process, including assembly (gluing and consolidation), typological classification, and inventory of assets (identification certificates and descriptive records). This led to a public exhibition that, along with a brief period setting, is compiled and included in the publication of this book.
Honored and grateful, I warmly welcome you to the renewed website of Arlette Pichardo Muñiz. This project is the result of the collaborative work of countless people who orchestrated their creative talent within the warmth of primary relationships permeated with affection. It is a space designed to provide illustrated, friendly, and aesthetically pleasing value.
At 25 years old, besides having planted trees while awaiting the arrival of my son Jorge Luis, I wrote 'Planificación y Programación Social', the first book of its kind published in Costa Rica, with several reprints and subsequent editions in Argentina.
The use of my publications in study programs, research, evaluations, and, in general, in the management of public institutions, social organizations, and private entities at international, national, regional, and local levels can be considered the primary achievement of my professional career.Today, within the Learning Space ('being in the process of learning'), I continue writing and publishing, coordinating research, and leading evaluations, participating both face-to-face and virtually in thesis advisory sessions and national and international events, seeking innovations and alternative proposals. And, of course, planting ornamental plants.
This relaunch, thanks to advances in information and communication technologies, includes an accessibility mechanism that we hope to expand in future updates, marking a new phase of digitized and online services. We offer access with a click, through dynamic and interactive multimedia format spaces, to sites hosting my most recent and continuously evolving work.You will find audiovisual materials on pedagogical mediation, books, articles of scientific dissemination, and essays authored by me, as well as authored and compiled texts, co-authored books, book chapters in authorship and co-authorship; videos of participation in events and dissemination of initiatives, opinion articles in alternative media, and conversation spaces through podcasts (available for download in various formats). You will also find options for establishing dialogues, tutorials, and personalized advice, and even specialized technical assistance.
I hope you visit us frequently and stay informed about the latest updates.
