One of the reasons why I am fascinated by these supernatural languages of silence, which, after all, we could consider petroglyphs, is precisely the power they have to connect with that libertine and bohemian side of Reason, allowing us to speculate freely without being intimidated by falling into the pomp, circumstance and etiquette that characterize academic disciplines.
Archaeology, on the other hand, as far as these are concerned, remains sufficiently stagnant to avoid any thorny issue, with a series of circumstantial labels that are far from satisfying the rich and varied intentionality that seems to emanate from a symbolism, not only fascinating, to the point of attracting the attention of eminent psychologists, such as C.G. Jung, but, in addition, it has not known or has not wanted to get involved in a fundamental question, which would destroy many of its theories: its universality.
This universality, independently of this key, which for Jung was the Collective Unconscious, may be related to these myths of catastrophes and floods, which are also universal and could provide the testimony of survivors who, dispersed and without the possibility of contact, nevertheless made use of a common symbolism that would capture, in the eternity of the rocks, the testimony of their survival and a guide for those who might come after.
Uno de los motivos por los que me fascinan esos sobrenaturales lenguajes del silencio, que, después de todo, podríamos considerar a los petroglifos, es, precisamente, el poder que tienen para conectar con ese lado, libertino y bohemio de la Razón, permitiéndonos especular libremente sin dejarnos amedrentar por caer en la pompa, la circunstancia y la etiqueta que caracterizan a las disciplinas académicas.
La Arqueología, por otra parte, en lo que a estos se refiere, permanece todavía lo suficientemente estancada como para sortear toda espinosa cuestión, con una serie de etiquetas circunstanciales que lejos están de satisfacer la rica y variada intencionalidad que parece emanar de un simbolismo, no sólo fascinante, hasta el punto de atraer la atención de eminentes psicólogos, como C.G. Jung, sino, que, además, tampoco ha sabido o no ha querido involucrarse en una cuestión fundamental, que echaría por tierra muchas de sus teorías: su universalidad.
Puede que esa universalidad, independientemente de esa clave, que, para Jung, era el Inconsciente Colectivo, esté relacionada con esos mitos de catástrofes y diluvios, que son también universales y que podrían proporcionar el testimonio de unos supervivientes, que, dispersos y sin posibilidad de contacto, se valieron, no obstante, de un simbolismo común que fuera plasmando, en la eternidad de las rocas, el testimonio de su supervivencia y una guía para los que pudieran venir después.
