This text speaks about abuelo sabedor Miru Púu, Antonio Guzmán López, who for more than thirty years was a collaborator, “informant” and coauthor of scholars who study the Colombian Vaupés area. It is presented as homage to this abuelo sabedor of the Desana Nation because with his wisdom and knowledge he gave all of us a life lesson.
