Extractions: History and Archaeology Pre-Incan and Incan Period To visit Hacienda Zuleta is to experience four centuries of Ecuadorian history seeped in Pre-Colombian, Spanish and Ecuadorian tradition. The original inhabitants of the Zuleta region were the peace-loving Caranquis. They were an agrarian-based culture and flourished in this area rich in volcanic soils from about 800 A.D. until the arrival of the war-faring Incas in the late 1470's. Caranqui Pyramid on the grounds of Hacienda Zuleta Although the Caranquis fought stoically against the Inca for forty years, they were eventually conquered and forced into Inca servitude. Yet Inca rule was short-lived. By 1534, the last Inca king, Atahualpa, had been captured and assassinated by the Spanish conquistador, Pizarro, leaving the Inca empire in collapse and a free for all for the land-hungry vassals of the Spanish Crown. Execution of Atahualpa by Pizarro, marking the end of Inca domination in the Zuleta region, and the beginning of Spanish rule Jesuit Occupation In the late 16th century, King Carlos is believed to have bequeathed the Zuleta region to the Jesuits, who implemented their Spanish methods of farming and cattle and sheep production. In the following years an obraje (small wool mill) was established. By 1691, the Hacienda house, granary and chapel were completed and the farm was in full operation.

Extractions: i The SINTRAEMCALI-Uribe Showdown by Andy Higginbottom "You must respect me!" shouted president Uribe Vélez across the table at SINTRAEMCALI union president Lucho Hernandez. Lucho was calm, "I respect the president, but the last part of what you just said is not true." "Yes, he did say it!" shouted the audience. This verbal confrontation on March 10 was shown on national television and reported in all the Colombian press, where a union leader daring to stand up to Uribe is big news. The setting was a supposed "public" forum in which Uribe and his Superintendent of Public Services presented their options for the future of the EMCALI public services corporation in Cali. The meeting was packed with employers and politicians and took place inside a military airbase. Lucho, accompanied by Congress representative Alexander Lopez and three representatives of Cali's poor communities, had to argue his way in. There are two "publics" in Colombia: the elite and the common people. Uribe's consultation was obviously meant only for the elite club.

Extractions: Print this article Colombian exchange The long-term effects of the Conquest are no less fascinating. The 'Columbian Exchange' as modern historians call it, brought the potato, the pineapple, the turkey, dahlias, sunflowers, magnolias, maize, chillies and chocolate across the Atlantic. On the other hand, tens of millions died in the pandemics of the 16th century, victims of smallpox, measles and the other diseases brought by Europeans (and don't forget that the African slave trade was begun by the Europeans, to replace the work force they had decimated). Then, after the defeat and extermination of the native societies, came the arrival of the European settler class and the appropriation of the native lands and natural resources. From this process has emerged the modern US empire. The effects on the economies of the world were no less marked as it shifted the centre of gravity of civilisation to the countries of the Atlantic seaboard and their offshoots in the New World. However, the story is also one of history's greatest adventures. The opening up of the continent involved unparalleled journeys of exploration with almost unbelievable bravery, endurance, cruelty and greed. For instance, Almagro's 6,000km expedition to explore the wastes of Chile, or de Soto's fateful three-year march through a dozen US states - a tale only now being untangled by US historians. Then there are the extraordinary explorations across the Andes, deep into Venezuela and Colombia in the 1530s, journeys which gave birth to the alluring legend of El Dorado. It was the dream of El Dorado that fired Gonzalo Pizarro's 18-month expedition across the Ecuadorian Andes: 'the worst journey ever in the Indies', it was said. However, it led by accident to the discovery and descent of the Amazon. When all is said and done, it is no exaggeration to say that these are some of the greatest land explorations in history.

http://colombia.poetryinternational.org/

Extractions: Henao [] Jaramillo [] The history of Colombian poetry begins with the polished line of Hernando Dominguez Camargo, selfish reflect of Don Luis de Góngora. After passing through a formal labyrinth, where poetry was characterized by the decadent tone of a romanticism accomplished by untruthful translators, Colombian poetry comes to life with the poet José Asunción Silva, in the XIXth century, who is considered by many as the precursor of modernism in America, more so than Ruben Dario himself. Under the insular figure of Silva, a new generations of poets grew up. This characteristic of insularity tended to be repeated, in poets like Porfirio Barba Jacob, errant flame, in the elusive and delightful León de Greiff, whose complicated work precludes any epigone, and in Luis Carlos Lopez and his complete universe from the province. The late avant-garde of 1926 produces Luis Vidales, an outstanding author with a very popular and revolutionary book

A 40-year insurgent campaign to overthrow the Colombian Government escalated during the 1990s, undergirded in part by funds from the drug trade. Although the violence is deadly and large swaths of the countryside are under guerrilla influence, the movement lacks the military strength or popular support necessary to overthrow the government. While Bogota continues to try to negotiate a settlement, neighboring countries worry about the violence spilling over their borders.

Extractions: David Leiwant stood in the Columbia High School parking lot watching the younger players throw, chase, and catch the disc under the bright white lights and the cover of a summer night. "If you squint your eyes, its almost like 25 years ago," said the 42-year-old Leiwant, a 1973 alumnus of Columbia, located in Maplewood, N.J. "Just a rag-tag bunch of guys running around with a Frisbee." Leiwant was a 13-year-old seventh-grader in 1968, a tumultuous year for America and the world. Martin Luther King, Jr., and then Bobby Kennedy were assassinated, a war raged in Vietnam and the country was coming to grips with the civil rights and womens rights revolutions. But, in one corner of the country, in Maplewood, things were changing for the better. That year, staff members of the schools newspaper, The Colombian, and its Student Council developed an entirely new sport as a gag and an activity for their high school nights. Led by Joel Silver the willful, if somewhat arrogant, member of the Council and the newspaper the students adapted the rules of Frisbee Football and ultimately invented the fast-moving team sport we know today.

http://hallamericanhistory.com/americas/831.shtml

Extractions: This is a study of the role of regions in the development of modern nations in Latin America. Eduardo Posada-Carbo focuses on the Colombian Caribbean between 1870 and 1950. He examines the achievements and shortcomings of arable agriculture and the significance of the livestock industry, the links between town and countryside, the influence of foreign migrants and foreign capital, the relationship between local and national politics, and the extent to which regionalism represented a challenge to the consolidation of the national state in Colombia. This original study opens up the area to scholarly scrutiny, and has wider implications for Latin American historiography.

http://www.ecopetrol.com.co/inge/exhistor.htm

Extractions: H ydrocarbon exploration started at the end of the last century with the drilling of the Tubara well in the Lower Magdalena Valley basin. The Infantas structure in the Middle Magdalena Valley basin provided the first commercial production with the wells Infantas No.1 and No.2; initial production was 42 bopd. With proven recoverable reserves of 800 million barrels, the Infantas field became the first commercial field in Colombia and the starting point of its hydrocarbon history, first as Concession of the Trocco Oil and subsequently with the birth of the Empresa Colombiana de Petróleos, ECOPETROL, in 1951. Between 1940 and 1960 exploration work carried out in the Upper, Middle and Lower Magdalena Valleys and the Catatumbo basins resulted in important discoveries. The advance of technology and exploration techniques have allowed the identification of new structures bringing further oil reserves for the national economy. This has been accomplished through the use of seismic, gravimetric and magnetometric surveys, together with exploratory drilling. The Orito field was discovered in the Putumayo basin in the early 60's. Its initial reserves of around 200 million barrels allowed the country to export oil as of 1969.
