| description | This work analyzes the mythological belief or superstitions associated with farming and conservation activities in nine rural productive units on the river basin La Vieja, Colombia. The elderly people recognize the influence of multiple stories over productive and environmental conditions that are an important part of success or fail on their rural activities. The beliefs were classified by their functionality and the activities they regulate. 14 myths that have any on the influence activities of cultivate, breeding, conservation and social regulation were described. The main element for discussion was the functionality, considering its relationship the distribution and application in the subsystems of productions in the farms with the age, the gender and the hierarchy position on the family structure. It was conclude that the flow of information between expert systems and systems of popular knowledge helps to construct an adapted system. An example is the use, in cattle farms, of different moon phases during the artificial insemination to ensure the pregnancy and sex of the breed. |

Este trabajo analiza las creencias mitológicas, agüeros o supersticiones asociadas con las actividades agropecuarias y de conservación en nueve unidades productivas rurales de la cuenca media del río La Vieja, Colombia. Plantea que las gentes de antaño reconocen la influencia de múltiples relatos sobre condiciones productivas y ambientales que redundan en el éxito o el fracaso de las actividades rurales. Las creencias se clasificaron según su funcionalidad y las actividades que regulan. Se describieron así 14 mitos que influyen en las actividades de cultivo, cría, conservación y regulación social. El principal elemento de discusión fue la funcionalidad, considerando la distribución y aplicación en los subsistemas de producción en la finca, la relación con la edad y el género y con la posición jerárquica en la estructura familiar. El flujo de información entre sistemas expertos y sistemas de creencias tradicionales ayuda a construir sistemas adaptados. A manera de ejemplo, se puede mencionar un mayordomo de un hato ganadero que combina la creencia en las fases de la luna con el empleo de la técnica genética de la inseminación artificial para asegurar no sólo la preñez de la madre sino también el género femenino de la cría. 2010-08-02 2022-03-16T17:59:05Z 2022-03-16T17:59:05Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://www.mundoagrario.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/v10n20a11 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/26316 spa https://www.mundoagrario.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/v10n20a11/461 https://www.mundoagrario.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/v10n20a11/462 application/pdf text/html Centro de Historia Argentina y Americana Mundo Agrario; Vol. 10 No. 20 (2010) Mundo Agrario; Vol. 10 Núm. 20 (2010) Mundo Agrario; Vol. 10 N.º 20 (2010) 1515-5994 |
