Country Info Colombia Introduction Colombia General Data Colombia Maps Colombia Culture ... Colombia Time and Date Colombia Culture Back to Top Geography has played a critical role in shaping Colombian culture, particularly in regard to regional isolation. Prior to the arrival of the first Europeans in the 16th century, the aboriginal populations of the area that was to become Colombia had achieved a high level of cultural development. Because they built largely of wood and occupied a tropical area of generally moderate to high rainfall, they left little evidence of their achievements. All groups had some form of social organization, but, except for the Chibcha of the Cordillera Oriental, they were organized in small chiefdoms (cacigazcos) under chiefs (caciques) whose authority was sharply limited geographically. Colombia’s Native American cultural tradition, although less spectacular than that of Mexico and Peru, was rich and varied prior to the arrival of Spanish settlers in the 16th century. Several groups developed agriculture and crafts, producing fine works in stone and precious metals such as gold. Their temples, statues, and pottery attest to the richness of their cultures, and Native American designs continue to influence folk arts such as sculpture, textiles, music, and dance. During the colonial period, Native American civilization was rapidly assimilated into that of the Spanish settlers. Agriculture, pottery making, and weaving were all but universal. Some groups—for example, the Chibcha, Quimbaya, Tairona, Sinú, and Calima—had developed great skills in metalworking (especially goldsmithing), sculpture, and ceramics. The San Agustín culture, centred in the headwaters area of the Magdalena River, left giant anthropomorphic figures carved of stone that have been an enigma for archaeologists. While groups of Caribbean origin were warlike and practiced ritual cannibalism, others from the interior possessed a rich mythology and a religion that upheld ethical standards and norms on questions of private ownership and the prevention of crime.

Music Index Silicon Valley Metroactive Home Archives Shout It Out : Latina singer/songwriter Shakira says she was influenced by Led Zeppelin and the Clash. Killer Colombian Shakira's music has taken the Latin world by storm. But singing in a second tongue, is she just another hot blond diva? By Gina Arnold SPANISH LANGUAGE and music station KSOL is one of the most listened to radio stops in the Bay Area, and 24-year-old Colombian sex bomb Shakira is one of the most listened to singers in the Spanish-speaking world. So how come KSOL doesn't play Shakira's music? This is a question that cuts to the heart of the difference between pop and rockand the difference between American musical tastes and those of other cultures. KSOL doesn't play Shakira for the same reason KFOG, KITS, and KLLC (Alice) don't play the music of PJ Harvey. For KSOL, her Alanis Morissette-meets-Madonna type music is too edgy and sophisticated. On English-speaking stations, alas, her musicand particularly her glittery personamay be too poppy, too lite. After all, KFOG, KITS and KLLC don't play Britney Spears either, which may mean that Shakira, who is a cross between Spears and Harvey (with some J. Lo thrown in for good measure), may be shut out of every type of radio demographic with Laundry Service, her first English-language record. Shakira (born Shakira Meberak) is Colombian-born, but of Lebanese descent. For those (like me) whose only window into Colombian culture is Betty La Fea, the Colombian soap opera in which ugly duckling Betty is persecuted by fabulously beautiful, spandex-clad models, Shakira, with her gorgeous body and lengthy dyed-blonde tresses, conforms to the stereotype of South American sex bomb. But she is, in fact, unique for her culture. For one thing, she cites Led Zeppelin and the Clash as her favorite acts. She also writes her own songs and is produced by Emilio Estefan, whose wife, Gloria, was the first Latin act to cross over in America.

This picture shows the number 7 train stop at 82nd street. I wanted the tree in the picture because it was blooming, which in a way symbolizes life to me. I wanted to show that Colombians have brought life into Jackson Heights. If you walk down 82nd street in Jackson Heights, I guarantee that you'll see at least 20 or 40 or more Colombians on the block. There are many other people from other cultures that live in the area, but the most noticeable culture is the Colombian community. In this area you could eat at dozens of Colombian restaurants. Under the train staircase there is always a woman selling Colombian snacks like empanadas or arepas.

53. Rock In Colombia HISTORY Music. Gabriel Garcia Marquez. The Rock has always been connectedwith the colombian culture Eduardo Arias. At the ends of http://venus.javeriana.edu.co/colrock/ingles/history.html

"The only thing that is better than to listen to Music, is to talk about Music." Gabriel Garcia Marquez. "The Rock has always been connected with the Colombian culture..." Eduardo Arias. At the ends of the 50's the Rock n' Roll came to Colombia, together with all the student movements that had their hard epoch at the ends of the 60's; also, in this time, came the Hippies, who professed peace and love, and all that revolutionary movement that characterize this time. In 1964 came the Beatlemania. This phenomenon was a fundament to many of the first Colombian Rock bands; "Los Speakers" and "Los Flippers" were a clear example of that. They tried to sound and to look like the Liverpool quatrain. The fanaticism and the hysteria, as "Los Speakers" drummer said, weren't a product of them, they were a product of all that movement called "The New Wave". They also traduced some of the most hear Beatles songs. At the same time began the discotheque meridian. Discotheques like "La Bomba" were released; they took an important place in the work of diffusing this beautiful genus in this country. There were a lot of sites where people could go dancing, but the objective, in this epoch, was just to have fun and the youth rebelliousness got a new questioning. Talking about this, Eduardo Arias said: "I don't believe that it has a deeper load than we're young and want to have fun in our way". "El Club Del Clan" was also released, with Oscar Golden and Vicky who played an important Roll in this time.

55. Indianapolis Woman: The Top Woman's Magazine In Indiana One couple in particular made a point of inviting the family to celebrateholidays and special events, and showed interest in colombian culture. http://www.indianapoliswoman.com/myhtml/covergallery/2001/sept.html

September 2001 By Johannah H. Pollert - Photography by Greg Puls In her personal life, Carmen DeRusha is known among friends for the open arms she extends to her party guests. In her role as president of Fiesta Indianapolis, she wants immigrants to the city to feel the same way: that they are welcomed with open arms. DeRusha realizes central Indiana's ever-growing number of Latin-American immigrants might feel isolated in what is a foreign country to them. She knows that because she has experienced it. The 41-year-old emigrated from Colombia in 1986 to marry Connecticut-resident Stanley DeRusha, now the director of orchestral activities at Butler University and resident conductor for the Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra. When she moved to North America, her inability to speak English turned simple pleasures into dreaded chores. For example, she couldn't shop for clothes without her husband, who spoke Spanish, because she couldn't read any of the signs or tags. She didn't know the difference between juniors, petites, misses and women's. "It's like you need to learn all the basic skills all over again," she says of her baptism-by-fire orientation to the country. Fortunately, her husband's colleagues at the University of Hartford made her feel at home in the United States. One couple in particular made a point of inviting the family to celebrate holidays and special events, and showed interest in Colombian culture. DeRusha sees Fiesta Indianapolis as a similar vehicle - to help immigrants feel comfortable in their new community.
