Summary: | This article analyzes the social, cultural, economic and political actions undertaken by the indigenous communities of the old indigenous reservation of San Carlos de Cañasgordas against the colonization process in western Antioquia between 1880 and 1920. During that time, the final distributions of the collective ownership in the basins of the rivers Sucio and Murrí were made.
