Chitareros
The Chitareros were an indigenous Chibcha-speaking people in the Andes of north-eastern Colombia and north-western Venezuela. They were responsible for the death of the German ''conquistador'' Ambrosius Ehinger in 1533 by means of poison arrow.
At the time of the Spanish colonization of the Americas their territory ranged from present-day Táchira (Venezuela) to the northwest and south of Norte de Santander Department and the northeast of Santander Department (Colombia).〔 Moreno González, Leonardo (2011), "(Paisaje y poblamiento del nororiente andino colombiano: la etnia de los Chitareros en el siglo XVI )", ''Fermentum'', 009 - Nº 25, p160〕 The Chicamocha River formed a southern boundary, the Valegra a southwestern, and the Surata a southeastern.〔Moreno González (2011:178)〕 One of their settlements became the Colombian town of Chinácota; they were primarily known in the area of Pamplona, Colombia. At the refoundation of Pamplona in 1549 there were said to be 200,000 in the area.〔Pedro Simón (1861), ''(expedition of Pedro de Ursúa & Lope de Aguirre in search of El Dorado and Omagua in 1560 - 1: translated from Pedro Simon's sixth historical notice of the conquest of Tierra Firme )'', Volume 28 of 1: Works, Hakluyt Society, ppxxi-xxii〕
They were called "chitareros" by the Spanish, because of the general custom that the men had to carry hanging from the waist ''calabazo'' or ''totumo'' (calabash gourds) with maize wine or ''chicha'' as the Spaniards called it. Asking how the thing they carried was called, the natives responded that it was a ''chitarero''.
They traded with other peoples in the region, including the Muisca, the Guane culture and Lache people.
