VELASQUEZ ARANGO, JUAN JOSÉ. New Perspectives for the History of the Pijao People, 16th and 17th Centuries. Front. hist. [online]. 2021, vol.26, n.1, pp.256-279.  Epub 01-Jan-2021. ISSN 2027-4688.  https://doi.org/10.22380/20274688.1125.

Despite the many mentions that traditional historiography has made about the Pijao people about the war that they carried out between the 16th and 17th centuries, very little is known about their society, customs and way of subsistence. Considering this, the article presents new perspectives in this regard, studying factors such as geographic location, form of habitation, demography in different periods, and social organization, among others, that allow to get a better understanding of the historical evolution of this indigenous group and the phenomena in which they were involved. For this research, different documentary sources from national and international archives were used, as well as classical and recent historical and archaeological research, which, through a multidisciplinary perspective, can offer new points of view and study topics related to indigenous groups in the current Colombia during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

Palavras-chave : pijaos; 16th century; 17th century; society; customs.
