Lucia de Francisco Zea (1926 - 2022)
Lucia de Francisco Zea was a prominent Colombian researcher and anthropologist. She was the first woman-scientist in the country to drive to Sierra Nevada and other regions of Colombia to explore and document her findings about indigenous populations.
Lucía de Francisco has been passionately collecting materials on national folklore, “because children have to know their country, its customs and its values to be able to love them; because if they don't know each other, they don't love each other, and if they don't love each other, they cannot defend themselves."
