Mehr zum Buch

The book delves into the rich cultural tapestry of Ecuador, tracing its history from the Incan Empire to the diverse influences that shaped its modern identity. It highlights the significance of indigenous cultures, such as the Valdivia, and the impact of European colonization, which led to the emergence of the Mestizo population. With Mestizos making up approximately 71.9% of Ecuador's current demographics, the narrative explores the blending of indigenous, European, and African heritages that define Ecuadorian culture today.
