Description
Summary:This article uses a critical review to explore theoretical guidelines to propose a representation of a historical and cultural area between the North-eastern border of Colombia and the states of Tachiraand Merida of the Republic of Venezuela. This representation aims to understand and compare historical and cultural dynamics of pre-Hispanic settlements. Thus, this bordering region is presented as a living territory with constant variations across over time and space, which forms a complex network of trade and people without national borders. The Lake of Maracaibo is the focus of this interdisciplinary research that combines archaeological, ethno historicaland economical sources to approach a more complete view of the past
