From Salsipuedes to eternity
brief personal reflections
few days ago was commemorated in Uruguay the episode known by ordinary Uruguayans, as the killing of Salsipuedes. Historical fact not necessarily and exclusively military and was treated for a long time since the official historiography, which is taken and accepted as the event that marks the beginning of the end, cultural and ethnic, the hunting bands originating latest occupants of this room Plata Basin.

already constitutes genocide, since the details of military episode where ambushed by a force which did not expect violence ends in death most of their bosses and warriors and ethnocide look, which is expressed but does not start in the discretionary allocation of Indian women and children captured in the event, which would not be intellectually honest out of context epochal the fact is that after living for centuries with the European cultural borrowings among other horses do, and rider and, this mobility radically transforms the way they live, with some of its language and acquired many of the customs and technology of European man, also an ally and baqueano converge at historical junctures. Uruguayans or Eastern, the latter adjective with which many of us feel better identified constituents transplant birth of people in this part of the world, then and now considered again by the European always the anxious search for roots that we are own identity and never found, scanning with existential angst to the other side of the ocean, being pretentious whites, fearful of the stigma Indian and primitivez, ethnocentric memory built from the "dirty" and "primitive" compared to the white aesthetic, Western and Christian. Just read  Zorrilla and Tabaré to understand and understand them because we think what we think and feel what we do not always express with honesty. We are not a society that identifies with their Indian ancestry. | The celebration took place "civilized" white culture ie, low in tears and screaming relieved of pain, without mutilation of mourning, let alone, revenge and sacrifice rituals, leaders and activists, and some curious, all politically correct in their right "ought."

faith and presence, at least at night Cagancha or Freedom Square in Montevideo, low crowd gathered under the banner announcing and denouncing the 180 years since the genocide and were few and gloomy gorges available to chant old sad songs of Indian penalties. From this world that accommodates easy and convenient their sins, hide their pettiness and interests and bury the dead quickly forgotten and the horrors of the people and peoples "without history", it is not surprising. As an anthropologist, I reflect and meditate, I go back in an impossible to be there, look at this and horrifies the future, and from its context, I feel that the cultural clash between those hunters using their coping strategies and life nature from its ethos considered sovereign and inalienable right through the long journey of thinking that is synthesized in the primordial world view of the conqueror and their descendants, then crossed the interests of their own subsistence that frames Creoles later in propietarismo in their society of accumulation and consumption, the natives, not only in these lands were no longer in the eighteenth century a chance to keep their styles of living, and did not. can look at the issue from many points of view. I will not indulge in melancholy laments this point in the global world is absolutely useless, I will express my feeling that the whole species, remains unresolved cultural contradictions his terrible death and therefore the clogging continues, is each page of the newspapers of daily living, a solution one day and another was taken and soon, overlapping in this crowd repeatedly billion dollar global population we are as soon as yesterday's newspaper, was transformed into oblivion, but worse, leaving not even a lesson, but to learn, at least to study. Other considerations are, I admit, in the field of theoretical discussion and analysis. Nothing saved so far in the world to be as conquistados.Siguen people in before the first empires, the barbarians.

The state of the campaign in 1830

Salsipuedes
A stinging areas of national history, on which often happens every race, and that at best, because silence has been the standard, which regards the events of 1831, related to the killing and the charrúas detribalization.
The events themselves have been interpreted as a cruel necessity, and as a useless carnage. Fans and political enemies of the figure of General Fructuoso Rivera have seen the episode of Salsipuedes in the light of party interests that, from that time, the latent conflict between the ideology of future targets and red-are projected over all national events and whose influence could not escape the contemporary evocations. However, the records show that in the case the extermination of the charrúas not attributable to the executive arm full responsibility for the fact. All members of the Creole population explicitly or tacitly supported the disappearance of the Aborigines. Rivera was only the trigger of a loaded gun for a long time ago. Salsipuedes But the issue continues to be fertile, because it is controversial and dialectical by a point on the other. The creolists, attentive to the arguments of those who sought to pacify the campaign and ensure the smooth running of the farms, adopting the extreme measures taken by Fructuoso Rivera Rivera Salsipuedes and Barnabas in Mataojo.
looked at the issue from a pragmatic point of view, regardless of the feelings or which may give rise disaffected players, it's easy to see that, in world history as the American, upon the clash of civilized nations of the West with "barbaric" or "wild", the winners were the best armed and organized, which does not mean that they were superior to the vanquished in the order of the moral virtues. The fate of the Charruas was sealed from the moment they landed in America Hispanic contingent. Most indigenous peoples were quickly bowed down by the invasion of the West. Others, like our Indians, fought for three centuries against the colonial armies before being destroyed by the republican armies.
The state of the campaign in 1830
When our country leans to the political independence and is constituted as a state livestock farms north of the Black River chaos reigned. Cuereadores clandestine hairy cattle rustlers and bandits with no other law than their knives, were not going to take Japan back who, in constant cattle raids after "others", which they believed themselves, startled with his galloping, robberies and beatings hands with the landowners and their laborers.
Obes Rondeau and Lucas in January 1830 warned that there should be an end to "the perverse constantly waging war to cattle, which cause you date "the piercing cry of that part of the neighborhood that has deserved much of the country for their efforts in the fight against Brazil." Consequently. the government must ensure "every the most peaceful citizen enjoyment of their property "which requires, in advance, ending" sheaves "that ravage. Similarly intends to know" what the situation called charrúas wild "and whether" it is true in their tolderías are a considerable number of vagrants and deserters ". This ruling General Rivera pointed to as responsible for carrying out these tasks prior to a comprehensive settlement of the fields for the purposes of final peace.
Like Lucas Obes Rondeau and a month later, in February 1830, Juan Antonio Lavalleja communicated to the Commander General of arms, Brigadier GeneralFructuoso Riveraque, in relation to the excesses committed by the Charrúas ", proceed with an iron hand . -
And imnediato recommended "high to the Lord General the earliest diligence in completing this issue, in which both are interested in the general good of the inhabitants of the Campaign." The tone of this communication does not doubt : time to take Japan comes to an end. The prominent government figures that will happen from here on will be supportive regarding the liabilities incurred by the extermination of those indigenous angry residents.
The reasons for the poor Indian and sound-history shows stick-like bells. While populating the enormous cattle ranches, which during the colonial period were called "the immeasurable", reached for the supply of all, though the struggle against Brazil had thinned heavily, that argument was not enforceable. The right of landowners and limited servers precedence over the needs for food and survival of the former owners of the country, condemned to exile in his own kingdom. That was the law imposed by the white man would respect blood and fire, as indeed happened. Assume other behavior is totally unrealistic: the reason of state, before and after Machiavelli had been inflexible, whether fair or unfair. -
The source of law is power, and that they knew as Kelsen lawyers or politicians like Napoleon, Lenin, or De Gaulle.

Gauchos
When Rivera in 1830 assumed the presidency of our country Maroon stays in crisis. Leather and cattle thieves of all the hairs had seized the country's interior ....
Rivera, President, leaving Montevideo, delegated power, and party after the bandits and Indians. At first, the "gauchos", as they say in parts of Garzón own war, they fell, they took the fruitful products of leather, put them in the stocks and in the dungeon, but no blood reached the river. In the Charruas, however, were condemned to physical death and cultural death, more terrible even than that.
Salsipuedes
Rivera, his cousin Barnabas, General and other heads Laguna move with stealth. You can not fight head-on against the five hundred that were scattered charrúas even north of the Black River. Formidable enemies are still remnants of yesterday ethnic pride and then harassed, degraded and weakened by contact with the vices and diseases of the white man, but owns the space of gallops and survival strategy in an environment increasingly hostile. Rivera moves cautious as a fox, a pair that uses a double standard, as now stated. You have to promise to the Indians return to Paradise Lost Gaucho area. Then it is necessary to assemble without the suspect's intentions and then distract promeseros, ernborracharlos and through a stroke, finishing with the chiefs and young warriors. About
Salsipuedes action, which occurred at the tips of Queguay the April 11, 1831, almost no details.
The newspaper El Universal, published in Montevideo, briefly said in its edition of April 15: "We are told that on day 10 of the current action has been a Salsipuedes, including Charrúas and the division of command immediately SE the President in the field, which have been completely destroyed those. "
actually were not completely destroyed. Some bosses, suspicious, did not attend the appointment. Other Indians, very few escaped. The dead were not the forty who entered the part of Rivera and the thousands that charruistas saddled with bad gear] General. As I said before, by the time the Charruas were about five hundred. After the action, brief and deadly, the elderly, children, women and some fighters were taken prisoner and taken to the capital. His fate was sealed by a ethnocide carried out with skillful ways, you qualify as some others as satanic and humanitarian.
The output of the expeditionary force by General Rivera complied fully with its two goals: an end to the misdeeds of the rustlers and end the Charruas.
After the match, if you can call it, spreads to a careful and elegant part of war, the result of the good offices of a secretary, lawyer, whose content does not have any waste, both in her shines thoughtful and syntax as elusive as their calculated silence silent.

The decline of the indigenous world and the forms of integration into Montevideo urban society
- Anthropologist Dr. Leonel Cabrera
"INTRODUCTION
attempted integration processes from the military actions that permanently removed Indian society of the country, contain different aspects of particular interest to understand our cultural formation and our current assessment of the indigenous past. In 1831 one of the first acts of the Government of the young republic will be the extermination of the indigenous population exigua "infidel", survivor within the national territory. The early demise of the 'Charrúa'-about the same time it emerges as an independent country, Uruguay, which places it in the first country in America to beat the Indian problem. " This event has been taken as the starting point for self-considered, sometimes even with pride, think and feel as an "European", a "country transplanted" in America (Riberiro, 1975), almost completely ignoring the important mixing implicit, particularly in its rural population ...
