Abstract
Approaching heritage governance involves an exercise in deep understanding of the dimensions involved
there: the distribution of power, cultural practices, the economic dimension, social imaginaries and
others. In this work we seek to respond what factors enable the democratic governance of sites with
heritage declarations? From the application of the bibliographic review and field visits, information
was collected that, from a qualitative strategy that combines structured observation and interviews,
allowed to analyze the particularities and common experiences in two cases of archaeological heritage
management in Ecuador: Ingapirca and Cerro de Hojas-Jaboncillo. The processing of social conflict,
institutional trajectories and heritage appropriation processes are elements that lead to the findings of
this work. The inquiry strategy involved designing a methodological tool and its application on the two
mentioned sites to 30 local informants from different social groups.
