Abstract
MORENO HERNANDEZ, Mikel et al. Geohistorical systematization of the la vallita itinerary - “Marta Abreu” de las Villas Central University. Universidad y Sociedad [online]. 2023, vol.15, n.4, pp. 432-445. Epub Aug 12, 2023. ISSN 2218-3620.
The roads have great relevance for the society, through them resources and cultural ways of coexisting and distinguishing the environment pass. The itinerary used by Column 8 "Ciro Redondo" suggested by Dr. Antonio Núñez Jiménez in the locality of La Vallita, to take the troops to Santa Clara, is an event that has not been much studied from the historiographic point of view. The objective of this work was to carry out a geohistorical analysis of the route used between La Vallita and the Central University "Marta Abreu" of Las Villas. Methods of information collection and processing of the collected information were used; systematization was adopted as research design. The geohistorical study evidenced the insufficient bibliographic and cartographic information regarding the route, in addition to contradictions related to the accuracy of the route. Among the results achieved are the elaboration of a digital map, the introduction of methodological precisions to carry out geohistorical studies in similar scenarios and the description of the main variations in the geographical space of the area that may have an impact on the understanding of the historical truth. The research contributed to the rescue of the geohistorical identity and provides methodological references that can be generalized.
