Uhle’s train-ing as a philologist and archaeologist brought together elements that led him to elaborate a unique method of reading the different findings corresponding to the sites explored and excavated in the North Grande, North Chico and Central Zone. A review of his biography reveals the construction of a cultural-historical method applied to the so-called Pan-Andean cultural horizon. We will accompany the record with a selection of sketches found in one of his notebooks which forms part of Uhle’s corpus of 26 notebooks from his Chile period.From the sketch to the reflection of cultural style: a look at the collection of max uhle’s notebooks in chile (1912-1919); del boceto a la reflexión del estilo cultural: una mirada a la colección de cuadernos de max uhle en chile (1912-1919)text::journal::journal article
