    Pueblos originarios: oralidades y cosmogonías. Del Caribe a la Patagonia
    (2020) Yenny C. Ortega Noriega
    Our ancestors communed with the earth, understood that they were a vital part of the network of species that inhabit the planet, but they also discovered that each natural phenomenon was susceptible to interpretation. From this energetic relationship, almost always of a dual nature, a cosmovision was born: how to interpret the human cycles, birth, life, death; the relationship with other species, the anthropomorphic and zoomorphic transmutation. This article brings an approach to the ways of life of certain Amerindian Aboriginal cultures, characterized, among other things, by respect for nature and all its forms of life. It also presents some cosmogonic conceptions that have helped to shape the Latin American imaginary. Oral literature is another of the sections that the work presents given its importance in preserving the indigenous essence to understand that we are part of an ancestral cosmic whole.
