This article apraises the importance of gift on different cultures and its role in the formation of social relations. In this connection the starting point is a necessary reflection on the seminal work by Marcel Mauss, L´Essai sur le Don, published in 1920. A discussion of Mauss' thesis based on recent anthropological bibliography, brings to light the study of things that must be kept, particulary sacred objects. A new discussion is proposed on inalienable things.
