CASTRO BERMUDEZ, Adriana Carolina y TELLEZ NAVARRO, Román Francisco. Exploring the origin of our ancestors: the birth of the Nasa people: the history of a genocide. Rev. repub. [online]. 2018, n.24, pp.181-201. ISSN 1909-4450. https://doi.org/10.21017/rev.repub.2018.v24.a46.
The present article pretends to show how from the arrival of the Spaniards to the American continent all the judicial and jurisdictional practices that existed in the discovered territory were lost, thanks to the ignorance of the natives as persons and the lack of interest for their ancestral practices, as well as his worldview and his own history. How the Indian judicial organs were integrated is unknown to the inhabitants of the American people since the entities created by the Spanish Monarchy not only contributed to the indigenous genocide of South America, but also to obliterate the way in which these peoples, resolved their conflicts The loss of the figure of the Cacique as the maximum earthly and spiritual authority, as well as the struggle of the aboriginal peoples, especially the Nasa peoples seeking their self-determination and autonomy, are clear examples of this legal genocide.
Finally, it is from the constant social struggles that materialized in the new Colombian superior rule, Constitution of 1991, norm that under the protection of some international treaties and the interpretations of the Constitutional Court, in particular the decisions adopted by the first Court, they give relevance to the indigenous justice based on the formula of autonomy, self-determination and respect for their worldview, thus initiating the process of vindication of the culture of the ancestral peoples.
