The present ethnography aims to contribute to the understanding of the complex social, cultural and identity framework of afrochoteñidad, based on the collective memory of exchange practices (the "cambeo"), expressed in the "seasoning bone" seen as a symbol or vehicle of social cohesion within the community.
The ethnographic work is organized into three chapters, which mainly deal with several daily practices that allow the reproduction or social dynamics of the Afro-choteños people; the cultural practices of afrochoteñidad have been created and recreated from the sixteenth century, revealing thus, the stories, subjectivities and symbolic value of afrochoteñidad.
This academic exercise was carried out to understand the Afro-descendant people today and as a whole, through several of their cultural manifestations, considering that the past, the present and the future are tied in a single knot. It has started from a historical fact - as was the process of slavery in the sixteenth century - and from the collective memory of the Afro-descendant people, transmitted from time to time and from generation to generation, whose revitalization depends on the survival and reproduction of their identity and his culture.
The methodology used in the present ethnography was qualitative; ethnographic field work was carried out in two of the thirty-eight communities that make up the Afro-choteño ancestral territory: El Chota and Mascarilla, contemplating the following tools: anthropological participant observation, photographic record, in-depth interviews, and open non-directed interviews. |
