Historia mítica y memoria ancestral muisca en el parque arqueológico de facatativá: recuperación de la identidad desde la narración oral

Abstract

The purpose of the following study is to reconstruct the mythical story of the Muisca Culture, in the place called Parque Arqueológico de Facatativá, that allows the identification of elements that contribute to the identity of the different narratives. Narratives that are part of the material and spiritual culture of the territory, which are fundamental to the understanding of the intercultural relations that are woven in this sacred place. For this, four Circles of Word are developed, in which the identification and recognition of symbolic elements is explored, as well as the ancestral memory and factors that make the territory a place of intercultural character. This investigation is of great importance, in the first instance, for the Muisca Culture because marks another step in the vindication of the spiritual character related to territories that are considered sacred. In a secondary instance, it is important for the academic context, because it is proposed from the hermeneutic-phenomenological analysis, to highlight the work of protecting the Muisca ancestral memory carried out by the Sabedores and Sabedoras (knowledge keepers/cultural bearers), as agents of social, ethnic and cultural transformation. Keywords: narrative, interculturality, mythical history, intercultural education, ancestral pedagogy, ancestral memory.
