Description

Historical context :



The gaucho designates in Argentina, Uruguay and the south of Brazil, a herdsman of the South American plains (the pampa), the same in Paraguay, in the south-east of Bolivia (Tarija) and the south of Chile . In Brazil, the term is the origin of the gentile gaúcho, which is used to designate the inhabitants of the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The etymology of this term would have originated in the Quechua language huacchu (“orphan, solitary”), or from caló (gypsy, Spanish bohemian) gacho (“peasant, lover”). In Chile, we are more likely to speak of huaso.



We call gaucha (or china) the companion of the gaucho. As good a rider as he is, she is the one who takes care of growing the cereals (wheat and corn), watermelons, onions, baking bread in the oven, and weaving her companion's ponchos. Clothing-wise, we can recognize her by the shirt she wears over underwear, matched with a loose, long fringed dress, as well as a cotton scarf. Her hairstyle is most often made of two braids.



The gaucho is notably honored in Argentina on December 6, on the occasion of “National Gaucho Day” (Día Nacional del Gaucho).
