The Muisca nation gave birth to the legend of ElDorado. The legend spread due to the ritual done to crown a new king, a zipa. This ceremony was celebrated at Guatavita`s lagoon. The upcoming zipa was completely covered with gold powder until he became the personification of El Dorado, a golden man. Afterward, he dived into the lagoon, copulating symbolically with it, and become the undoubtful zipa. The news of this ritual walked the paths as far as Quito, where Sebastián de Belalcázar heard about it. But this is not a novel of some primitive and noble savage, that romantic idea that has over three centuries. Not the superficial idea of Muiscas their descendants, (half-blood too) have. No, instead, the real History of a developed nation with politics, economy, hierarchies, riches, lords, palaces, goldwork, and a powerful and stable kingdom. This novel asks for the right place in History for this culture. In a rich evergreen land sparkled with lagoons, surrounded by páramos that give birth to crystalline rivers, with a favorable climate, the History development is surely different than that of a culture in the middle of a desert. The reader has the opportunity to live in Bacatá, as a Muisca, and watch six decades of their affairs. Then, strange news arrives, unknown and weird people are coming, they bring horses, steel armors and swords, and gunpowder. The Muisca nation is confused, not sure if this strange men are gods or enemies. Conquerors come for ElDorado, they want the gold, and even though Nature has not placed gold in this geography, Muiscas have been rich and accumulated tons of it. Each cacique has its treasure, and each Ubsaque has its own, but they will bury it before giving it to the Spaniards. It seems the final day has come for Muiscas. How can they defend their nation?

The history of pre-Hispanic South America is prolific in narratives of violence perpetuated, in battle and commerce, to an indigenous population. Mostly for the sake of feeding a perverse avarice and yearning for luxury that was the fashion for Old World society at the time. This conquering force overcame great odds and difficulties to satisfy their greed for material treasure and, consequently took out their frustration and discomfort on these communities. Their occupation exhibited the brutality of a society desperate to pay their debts and build their riches with whatever could be extracted from other people, foreign lands. Disregarded by history are the narratives of the daily life of these indigenous people as they built true humane societies and developed myths to satisfy their curiosities of the workings of their natural world. What has been lost to history is the spark of wonder when the European met the American for the first time. Zoratama is that glimpse, told in the passion of a conquistador, for an American beauty: the love, the eroticism, the loss and the tragedy. Jaime Bedoya Martinez's Zoratama constructs the vision for modern Hispanic society through the eyes and passion of consorts of divergent worlds. His view that the legacy of the Muisca has been abandoned is true in that beyond anthropological and archeological studies explaining in detail the life, religion, society of these people, little credit is given to their contributions to current culture. And the assimilation, whether military or societal, of these cultures is anything but polite; the Spaniards greedy and brutal, the Muisca resolute and tribal. Mr. Bedoya beautifully builds an alternate storyline which ultimately argues that commitment to passion and transcendence has no boundaries. Zoratama, the Muisca princess, and Lázaro Fonte, the Spanish conquistador, construct a love story for the ages, replete with spiritual integration and an offspring of a new race.Ultimately, the writer in his true fashion destroys this love, immersed in the tragic myths of both races, in an absurd annihilation of people, family, emotion and sentiment because the ironic metaphor that evolves is the incarnation of a new race, culture and historical footprint.Edward Balderas

Excerpt: Muisca was the Chibcha-speaking tribe that formed the Muisca Confederation of the central highlands of present-day Colombia. They were encountered by the Spanish Empire in 1537, at the time of the conquest. The Muisca comprised two confederations: the Hunza (Tunja) of the northern area, whose sovereign was the Zaque; and the Bacata of the southern area, whose sovereign was the Zipa. Both confederations were located in the highlands of modern-day Cundinamarca and Boyaca (Altiplano Cundiboyacense) in the central area of Colombia's Eastern Range. The territory of the Muisca spanned an area of 46,972 square kilometres (18,136 sq mi) (a region slightly larger than Switzerland) from the north of Boyaca to the Sumapaz Paramo and from the summits of the Eastern Range to the Magdalena Valley. It bordered the territories of the Panches and Pijaos tribes. At the time of the Spanish Conquest, the area had a large population, but the precise number of inhabitants is unknown. The languages of the Muisca were dialects of Chibchan, also called Muysca and Mosca, which belong to the...

In the indigenous language, the word "Muisca" signifies person or people. And, according to very serious researchers, the Muisca natives appear to have descended from the Asiatic peoples who populated Central America, whence they obviously continued on to Panama, the territory of which once belonged to Colombia, and from there to Peru, Ecuador and elsewhere.Indeed, the "Chibchas" or "Muiscas" may be looked upon as descendants of Asiatics, because their ancestral lawgiver, Chicha-cum, had straight, black hair, a ruddy complexion, slanted eyes and a great resemblance to these natives. All of which is apart from the fact that certain customs, and the names, with which the Muiscas designated their towns, indicate that they came from somewhere in Central China.Let us consider closely, and without haste, these indigenous names, after having broken them down into their component syllables Zipaquira, Chiquinquira, Moniquira and Ramiquira... all of which surely leads us to a form of syllabic phonetics that is closely similar to the cultural and legendary China, cradle both of the earliest inventions and of a great civilization. By the same token, it has been affirmed that the Phoenicians also settled in America and that they implanted their great civilization here. This culture was then put into practice by the Muisca natives, which ties them to the building of the "Temple of the Sun" in Sogamoso and to the fabulous constructions of a tile-paved road, three meters in width, which connected the Eastern Plains, from El Meta to Firavitoba in the Andes, by way of which it is known that a great many Eastern caravans proceeded in both directions. In the same way, there is evidence of another branch which led to the Sacred Sanctuary of San Martin for those who rendered adoration to the sun.Further evidence of Phoenician culture is the region of San Agustin in the department of El Huila in Colombia, wherein there exist a great many petroglyphs of fabulous sculptures of stone. According to researchers, the customs of those Eastern indigenous peoples, their culture, their religion, the cotton which originated in the valley of the Nile, the black wheat which resembles sorghum, the use of looms and the manufacture of colored fabrics, the turban, money in the form of coins, commercial activity, credit with interest, the sacrifice of children and the worship of the crocodile were all implanted by those caravans that came from the Old Continent and which created a very old civilization, now vanished, along the Orinoco valley through El Meta and the Ariari of Colombia, and by way of the Upper Amazon valley to Ecuador and Peru. These cultures were later exterminated by the Caribe tribes. The learned Humboldt visited the irrigated zone of Maypure at El Meta, where he found on a rock the depiction of a crocodile 200 meters in length. The Phoenician, as is well known, worshipped the crocodile. At the apex there appears an inscription that defies translation: Athure. Another mysterious inscription was discovered by brother Juan de Santa Gertrudis, which, in Old Latin, is translated: "Up to this point we have arrived" in the very heart of the Andes, in the Department of Nari�o, in Colombia.

El libro definitivo sobre el pueblo muisca, escrito por Carl Langebaek el más prestigioso arqueólogo colombiano de la actualidad. ¿Dónde estaban ubicados los muiscas? ¿Cuántos eran? ¿Cómo era su organización política? ¿Qué sembraban? ¿Cuál era su tecnología?, ¿Qué creían? El arqueólogo Carl Langebaek, ha estudiado desde los años 80 las antiguas culturas del actual territorio colombiano. Los muiscas presenta todo lo que la ciencia ha logrado reconstruir sobre este pueblo, la comunidad prehispánica más influyente de su tiempo que ocupó un territorio del tamaño de Suiza y que vivió el primer contacto con los españoles durante el periodo de la conquista. Este texto está pensado para todo el público y busca divulgar la historia de un pasado del que mucho se habla pero poco se conoce.
