Resumen
A continuous process of invention, erosion, appropriation and mainly oblivion, takes place in the use of Social Anthropology's basic concepts. This matter isn't occasional, but goes on with anthropological development, and it has own evidence in theoretical production. New concepts are similar to well known concept (habitus); some concepts are applied with an opposite sense (consciousness), and other are stigmatized, even professionally avoided (social class). However, the most significant feat in the use of concepts it's their own oblivion. In this paper various complementary interpretations about this fact are proposed: the most important one shows the tendency in keeping the presence of the present, and how this occurs in the anthropological knowledge and in the socia production in daily life
