Desfile de Llamadas 2020 - Barrio Sur - Montevideo - Uruguay |
History goes that during the days of the Spanish colony, many African men and women were brought to America as slaves in order to fulfill tasks at the houses of the most remarkable families in Montevideo.
When slavery was finally abolished, these Uruguayan citizens began to form new groups and thus they gave shape to the neighborhoods popularly referred to as "Negro neighborhoods"...
Candombe was the rhythm that not only joined them together but also reminded them of their African past and held them close to their origins, to their history.

Esta edición lleva el nombre de Julio "Kanela" Sosa, en homenaje al emblemático artista del carnaval uruguayo fallecido en diciembre pasado.

As a result to the systematic criticism by the church of the abuses committed by the conquerors in the exploitation of the natives, the import of black slaves from Africa was authorized. In Río de La Plata, they had to cultivate the land, drive cattle and do domestic tasks. According to their customs they danced the "Candombe" to the rhythm of the durm, a profane dance whose evolution would convert into the Argentine tango. When slavery was abolished, it continued as a popular music, especially during carnival.
Museo Histórico de Cera (Historical Wax Museum) was opened in 1980 on the second floor of an Italian Renaissance building, at Dr. del Valle Iberlucea 1261, built in 1902 by architect J.B. Rocca. The only wax museum in the country features sculptor Domingo Tellechea's ceroplastic figures depicting the history of the neighborhood. The building was one of the first brick and cement houses in La Boca, and starting in 1904 it was the venue for the Committee of the Socialist Party, presided Dr. Alfredo Palacios, the first socialist in the Argentine Congress and in the American continents.
