Meaning tibet name:
Tibetans call their homeland Bod (བོད་), pronounced [pʰøʔ] in Lhasa dialect. It is first attested in the geography of Ptolemy as βαται (batai) (Beckwith, C. U. of Indiana Diss. 1977). Tibetans refer to Tibet as a "fatherland" (Tibetan: ཕ་ཡུལ་; Wylie: pha-yul), whereas "motherland" (Tibetan: མ་ཡུལ་; Wylie: ma-yul) is a neologism introduced in the 1960s to refer to China.[citation needed]
Tibetan plateauThe modern Chinese name for Tibet, 西藏 (Xīzàng), is a phonetic transliteration derived from the region called Tsang (western Ü-Tsang). The name originated during the Qing Dynasty of China, ca. 1700. It can be broken down into "xi" 西 (literally "west"), and "zang" 藏 (literally "Buddhist scripture" or "storage"). The pre-1700s historic Chinese term for Tibet was 吐蕃, pronounced as Tǔbō in mainland China and Tǔfān on Taiwan, its reconstructed Medieval Chinese pronunciation is /t'obwǝn/, which comes from the Turkish word for "heights" which is also the origin of the English term "Tibet."
The government of the People's Republic of China equates Tibet with the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR). As such, the name "Xizang" is equated with the TAR. In order to refer non-TAR Tibetan areas, or to all of cultural Tibet, the term 藏区 Zàngqū (literally, "ethnic Tibetan areas") is used. However, Chinese-language versions of pro-Tibetan independence websites, such as the Free Tibet Campaign, the Voice of Tibet, and Tibet Net use 西藏 ("Xizang"), not 藏区 ("Zangqu"), to mean historic Tibet.
Some English-speakers reserve "Xizang", the Chinese word transliterated into English, for the TAR, to keep the concept distinct from that of historic Tibet. Some pro-independence advocates duplicate the situation into the Chinese language, and use 土番 (Tubo) or 图伯特 (Tubote), which are both phonetic transcriptions of the word "Tibet", to refer to historic Tibet.[citation needed]
The character 藏 (zàng) has been used in transcriptions referring to Tsang as early as the Yuan Dynasty, if not earlier, though the modern term "Xizang" (western Tsang) was devised in the 18th century. The Chinese character 藏 (Zàng) has also been generalized to refer to all of Tibet, including other concepts related to Tibet such as the Tibetan language (藏文, Zàngwén) and the Tibetan people (藏族, Zàngzú).
The English word Tibet, like the word for Tibet in most European languages, is derived from the Arabic word Tubbat. This word is derived via Persian from the Turkic word Töbäd (plural of Töbän), meaning "the heights". in Medieval Chinese, 吐蕃 (Pinyin Tǔfān, often given as Tubo), is derived from the same Turkic word. Tǔfān was pronounced /t'o-bwǝn/ in Medieval times.
The exact derivation of the name is, however, unclear. Some scholars believe that the named derived from that of a people who lived in the region of northeastern Tibet and were referred to as 'Tübüt'. This was the form adapted by the Muslim writers who rendered it Tübbett, Tibbat, etc., from as early as the 9th century, and it then entered European languages from the reports of the medieval European accounts of Piano-Carpini, Rubruck, Marco Polo and the Capuchin monk Francesco della Penna.
Description Flag:
During the reign of the seventh-century king, Songtsen Gampo, Tibet was one of the mightiest empires in Central Asia. Tibet, then, had an army of 2,860,000 men. Each regiment of the army had its own banner. The banner of Ya-ru To regiment had a pair of snow lions facing each other, that of Ya-ru Ma a snow lion standing upright, springing upwards towards the sky, and that of U-ru To a white flame against a red background.
This tradition continued until the Thirteenth Dalai Lama designed a new banner and issued a proclamation for its adoption by all the military establishments. This banner became the present Tibetan national flag.
SYMBOLISM
In the centre stands a magnificient snow-clad mountain, which represents the great nation of Tibet, widely known as the Land Surrounded by Snow Mountains.
The Six red bands spread across the dark blue sky represent the original ancestors of the Tibetan people: the six tribes called Se, Mu, Dong, Tong, Dru, and Ra which in turn gave rise to the (twelve) descendants. The combination of six red bands (for the tribes) and six dark blue bands (for the sky) represents the unceasing enactment of the virtuous deeds of protection of the spiritual teachings and secular life by the black and red guardian protector deities with which Tibet has been connected since times immemorial.
At the top of the snowy mountain, the sun with its rays shinning brilliantly in all directions represents the equal enjoyment of freedom, spiritual and material happiness and prosperity by all beings in the land of Tibet.
On the slopes of the mountain a pair of snow lions stand proudly, blazing with the manes of fearlessness, which represent the country's victorious accomplishment of a unified spiritual and secular life.
The beautiful and radiant three-coloured jewel held aloft represents the ever-present reverence respectfully held by the Tibetan people towards the three supreme gems, the objects of refuge: Buddha, Dharma and Sangha.
The two coloured swirling jewel held between the two lions represents the people's guarding and cherishing of the self discipline of correct ethical behavior, principally represented by the practices of the ten exalted virtues and the 16 humane modes of conduct.
Lastly, the adornment with a yellow border symbolises that the teachings of the Buddha, which are like pure, refined gold and unbounded in space and time, are flourishing and spreading.
National Anthem: Shine of Buddha's
TIBETAN LYRICS

English
Let the radiant light shine of Buddha's wish-fulfilling gem teachings,
the treasure mine of all hopes for happiness and benefit
in both worldly life and liberation.
O Protectors who hold the jewel of the teachings and all beings,
nourishing them greatly,
may the sum of your virtuous deeds grow full.
Firmly enduring in a diamond-hard state, guard all directions with
Compassion and love.
Above our heads may divinely appointed rule abide
endowed with a hundred benefits and let the power increase
of four fold auspiciousness,
May a new golden age of happiness and bliss spread
throughout the three provinces of Tibet
and the glory expand of religious-secular rule.
By the spread of Buddha's teachings in the ten directions,
may everyone throughout the world
enjoy the glories of happiness and peace.
In the battle against dark negative forces
may the auspicious sunshine of the teachings and beings of
Tibet and the brilliance of a myriad radiant prosperitys
be ever triumphant.

Finally made up my mind to create my own diary for 2012 a week ago, here I go sharing with you all! But first please give me a little support, my Dad recovered from prostate cancer but at the same time developed Parkinson's disease a few years ago. In the past week he has deteriorated a lot, bed bound finally, no more speech, I'm the last person he can recognize. It is so tough for Mom as a care taker. All I ask for is your sincere prayers, as you download this creation, for my Dad and Mom, so that he can go peacefully proud of his sons, and she can start to explore this new world with us. What a courageous woman she is.

Thanks to my Dad's dedication to Chinese painting and art, I had my implicit training early in life and became a visual person yet unafraid to look deep into the subject matters. For years, I bought diaries but none of them satisfied my visual and creative needs.

Since the beginning of the diary making business, every single diary is made by representing time in fixed grids. To challenge this right representation, after exploring in deep thoughts the essence of my own perfect diary, I present to you my Chronodex idea.
Come to think of it, the paper which makes up a diary originated from trees, when the sheets of paper are bound together in the middle, it is almost like foliages stemming from a tree's trunk. Each page is like a branch, each opened page is a week, each day is like a beautiful flower grew from that page, consist of petals of your day's time slices.
You may argue that this format is still slicing time into blocks and far from the fractal nature, but soon as you start using it, you will find that time is no longer right, instead you will find fluidity through free notations.
The more important time slices can be drawn larger, activities can be dots or pies (petals if you will) depending on duration or importance, space on a page is no longer limited to grids. Basically you can roam freely and be amazed how beautiful your week can be.
What's more is that your mind gradually deviate from the rigid format a typical diary imposes on you, reactivity soon flourishes. Imagine the effect happening in weeks! And I'm not kidding.

To grow your own diary, after downloading the PDF version of your choice, print it out double sided (duplex) in landscape mode on A4 papers. Be sure to print it out 100% without scale, left/right binding (try the first few pages on your printer and settings and you'll see what I mean). Check the sequence after the print out.

Now here's the interesting part of the binding. Use a chisel to punch holes on both ends of the spine and stitch the pages up. You can staple them together just the same. This method will get you a bound notebook but ready for a cool bookmark which I will mention in a moment.

To create a bookmark, simple take a piece of hard paper, cut it the way I showed above. Slide it between the papers of the current week, the slide 90 degree up following the spine to have the tab exposed on top of the diary (I hope I'm describing it right). There you go! a bookmark with a tab extruding from the top of your diary.
This cool bookmark invention based on the way you bind your diary is so useful and flexible, you will find it amazing when you reach the 12th week of the year! Tell me about that in a few months.

The last part of my Chronodex journey was to make a cool diary cover. Thanks for my family's tolerance, I had a little free time in broad daylight having fun doing it, 2 cups of coffee, listening to audiobook through my iPhone/Jambox combo.

Small features are infused into the diary, I hope you will enjoy the little tibits, do explore the "Boarding pass to success" idea. If you are interested, I will be sharing the July - December version, which is still in stage zero. Fellow Scription reader Boris from Russia already had a taste of the Chronodex, so go ahead and try yours. Your feedback and comment is what keeps me going, please do pray.

Jiufen is such a wonderful place to be in. An old street right at the mountain (or a hill, not too sure about that.)
Along the streets, there's so many different types of local food delicacies, and even sweets and sugar store.
Amazing street of Jiufen. Worth exploring at every corner.
This wasn't my intention, his nose would have been a future subject of my photography. My original plan was his eyes, but I got this today and well...I couldn't help myself it cracks me up everytime.
Stupid Cody Tibit/Fact: He likes to steal my place in bed whenever I get out of it. I came back last night from the washroom to find him passed out in my place so I had to lay beside him. Later in the night he changed position and made my arm fall asleep. Everytime someone moves he gets up and sneaks into their spot.
I got tagged by so many of my flickr friends that i finally had to do this. Thanks to busymonster, Jonas, migs, Black Chicago, and especially my boy Z.
I didn't expect it to be so tough to come up with 16 things to share about myself. So, this is pretty much the first 16 things i thought of, over the course of two or three weeks. Not necessarily the most interesting tibits, but....
1. I was born and raised in Detroit, i spent most of my adult life in Atlanta, and i moved to the DC area a little over a year ago. Detroit is where my family is, DC is where i live, but Atlanta is home.
2. I have dealt with what i believe is undiagnosed bipolar disorder most of my adult life.
3. When i was a child, i couldn't figure out how to blow my nose.
4. I've lived my life in phases, cycles, strange period of time that seem to be completely disconnected. I have a tendency to make sudden, radical life changes; when i do i also tend to leave almost everyone and everything behind.
5. I had my first boyfriend when i was 16.
6. Parent-child reunions and reconciliations (tv, movies, news stories) always make me cry. Almost nothing else does.
7. When i was around 12 or 13, i took a hot curling iron and laid it across my forearm to see how i would react to the pain. Then i did it again. I still have the scars.
8. When i was nine or ten years old, i used to stay awake until my parents went to sleep, then go read my father's copy of "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex, but Were Afraid to Ask." That's when i first found confirmation that the feelings i had for other boys weren't "abnormal."
9. At my college graduation, i walked across the stage, but never went back to get my diploma.
10. Every time i've started an "entry-level" job somewhere, i've ended up in management within a couple of years. Then i quit. (I'm resisting all suggestions of "career development" where i am now.)
11. I am of Igbo, Egyptian, and French ancestry. That i know of.
12. My cousin was born two weeks and two days after i was. Three years later, her twin sister and brother were born two days after my sister.
13. I used to be fluent in American Sign Language. I even worked as an interpreter. That and Japanese are the only two languages i ever felt comfortable using (other than English). But i still occasionally think some things in French, thanks to high school.
14. I am a member [now long-distance] of a performance poets group called, The ADODI Muse: A Gay Negro Ensemble. I owe my "coming out" to the group's late founder, Tony Daniels.
15. I'm a compulsive book-reader. Once i start a book, i HAVE to finish it. (The only exceptions i've ever encountered, where i just couldn't do it: Waiting to Exhale by Terry McMillan, House of Sand and Fog by Andre Dubus III, and By the Light of My Father's Smile by Alice Walker.)
16. I am a pack rat. The only time i throw stuff away is when i move and can't possibly take it with me. There's something really wrong with me. ;-)

Now here's the interesting part of the binding. Use a chisel to punch holes on both ends of the spine and stitch the pages up. You can staple them together just the same. This method will get you a bound notebook but ready for a cool bookmark which I will mention in a moment.

To create a bookmark, simple take a piece of hard paper, cut it the way I showed above. Slide it between the papers of the current week, the slide 90 degree up following the spine to have the tab exposed on top of the diary (I hope I'm describing it right). There you go! a bookmark with a tab extruding from the top of your diary.
This cool bookmark invention based on the way you bind your diary is so useful and flexible, you will find it amazing when you reach the 12th week of the year! Tell me about that in a few months.

The last part of my Chronodex journey was to make a cool diary cover. Thanks for my family's tolerance, I had a little free time in broad daylight having fun doing it, 2 cups of coffee, listening to audiobook through my iPhone/Jambox combo.

Small features are infused into the diary, I hope you will enjoy the little tibits, do explore the "Boarding pass to success" idea. If you are interested, I will be sharing the July - December version, which is still in stage zero. Fellow Scription reader Boris from Russia already had a taste of the Chronodex, so go ahead and try yours. Your feedback and comment is what keeps me going, please do pray.

Finally made up my mind to create my own diary for 2012 a week ago, here I go sharing with you all! But first please give me a little support, my Dad recovered from prostate cancer but at the same time developed Parkinson's disease a few years ago. In the past week he has deteriorated a lot, bed bound finally, no more speech, I'm the last person he can recognize. It is so tough for Mom as a care taker. All I ask for is your sincere prayers, as you download this creation, for my Dad and Mom, so that he can go peacefully proud of his sons, and she can start to explore this new world with us. What a courageous woman she is.

Thanks to my Dad's dedication to Chinese painting and art, I had my implicit training early in life and became a visual person yet unafraid to look deep into the subject matters. For years, I bought diaries but none of them satisfied my visual and creative needs.

Since the beginning of the diary making business, every single diary is made by representing time in fixed grids. To challenge this right representation, after exploring in deep thoughts the essence of my own perfect diary, I present to you my Chronodex idea.
Come to think of it, the paper which makes up a diary originated from trees, when the sheets of paper are bound together in the middle, it is almost like foliages stemming from a tree's trunk. Each page is like a branch, each opened page is a week, each day is like a beautiful flower grew from that page, consist of petals of your day's time slices.
You may argue that this format is still slicing time into blocks and far from the fractal nature, but soon as you start using it, you will find that time is no longer right, instead you will find fluidity through free notations.
The more important time slices can be drawn larger, activities can be dots or pies (petals if you will) depending on duration or importance, space on a page is no longer limited to grids. Basically you can roam freely and be amazed how beautiful your week can be.
What's more is that your mind gradually deviate from the rigid format a typical diary imposes on you, reactivity soon flourishes. Imagine the effect happening in weeks! And I'm not kidding.

Be sure to print it out 100% without scale, left/right binding (try the first few pages on your printer and settings and you'll see what I mean). Check the sequence after the print out.

Now here's the interesting part of the binding. Use a chisel to punch holes on both ends of the spine and stitch the pages up. You can staple them together just the same. This method will get you a bound notebook but ready for a cool bookmark which I will mention in a moment.

To create a bookmark, simple take a piece of hard paper, cut it the way I showed above. Slide it between the papers of the current week, the slide 90 degree up following the spine to have the tab exposed on top of the diary (I hope I'm describing it right). There you go! a bookmark with a tab extruding from the top of your diary.
This cool bookmark invention based on the way you bind your diary is so useful and flexible, you will find it amazing when you reach the 12th week of the year! Tell me about that in a few months.

The last part of my Chronodex journey was to make a cool diary cover. Thanks for my family's tolerance, I had a little free time in broad daylight having fun doing it, 2 cups of coffee, listening to audiobook through my iPhone/Jambox combo.

Small features are infused into the diary, I hope you will enjoy the little tibits, do explore the "Boarding pass to success" idea. If you are interested, I will be sharing the July - December version, which is still in stage zero. Fellow Scription reader Boris from Russia already had a taste of the Chronodex, so go ahead and try yours. Your feedback and comment is what keeps me going, please do pray.

Finally made up my mind to create my own diary for 2012 a week ago, here I go sharing with you all! But first please give me a little support, my Dad recovered from prostate cancer but at the same time developed Parkinson's disease a few years ago. In the past week he has deteriorated a lot, bed bound finally, no more speech, I'm the last person he can recognize. It is so tough for Mom as a care taker. All I ask for is your sincere prayers, as you download this creation, for my Dad and Mom, so that he can go peacefully proud of his sons, and she can start to explore this new world with us. What a courageous woman she is.

Thanks to my Dad's dedication to Chinese painting and art, I had my implicit training early in life and became a visual person yet unafraid to look deep into the subject matters. For years, I bought diaries but none of them satisfied my visual and creative needs.

Since the beginning of the diary making business, every single diary is made by representing time in fixed grids. To challenge this right representation, after exploring in deep thoughts the essence of my own perfect diary, I present to you my Chronodex idea.
Come to think of it, the paper which makes up a diary originated from trees, when the sheets of paper are bound together in the middle, it is almost like foliages stemming from a tree's trunk. Each page is like a branch, each opened page is a week, each day is like a beautiful flower grew from that page, consist of petals of your day's time slices.
You may argue that this format is still slicing time into blocks and far from the fractal nature, but soon as you start using it, you will find that time is no longer right, instead you will find fluidity through free notations.
The more important time slices can be drawn larger, activities can be dots or pies (petals if you will) depending on duration or importance, space on a page is no longer limited to grids. Basically you can roam freely and be amazed how beautiful your week can be.
What's more is that your mind gradually deviate from the rigid format a typical diary imposes on you, reactivity soon flourishes. Imagine the effect happening in weeks! And I'm not kidding.

Now here's the interesting part of the binding. Use a chisel to punch holes on both ends of the spine and stitch the pages up. You can staple them together just the same. This method will get you a bound notebook but ready for a cool bookmark which I will mention in a moment.

To create a bookmark, simple take a piece of hard paper, cut it the way I showed above. Slide it between the papers of the current week, the slide 90 degree up following the spine to have the tab exposed on top of the diary (I hope I'm describing it right). There you go! a bookmark with a tab extruding from the top of your diary.
This cool bookmark invention based on the way you bind your diary is so useful and flexible, you will find it amazing when you reach the 12th week of the year! Tell me about that in a few months.

The last part of my Chronodex journey was to make a cool diary cover. Thanks for my family's tolerance, I had a little free time in broad daylight having fun doing it, 2 cups of coffee, listening to audiobook through my iPhone/Jambox combo.

Small features are infused into the diary, I hope you will enjoy the little tibits, do explore the "Boarding pass to success" idea. If you are interested, I will be sharing the July - December version, which is still in stage zero. Fellow Scription reader Boris from Russia already had a taste of the Chronodex, so go ahead and try yours. Your feedback and comment is what keeps me going, please do pray.

Finally made up my mind to create my own diary for 2012 a week ago, here I go sharing with you all! But first please give me a little support, my Dad recovered from prostate cancer but at the same time developed Parkinson's disease a few years ago. In the past week he has deteriorated a lot, bed bound finally, no more speech, I'm the last person he can recognize. It is so tough for Mom as a care taker. All I ask for is your sincere prayers, as you download this creation, for my Dad and Mom, so that he can go peacefully proud of his sons, and she can start to explore this new world with us. What a courageous woman she is.

Thanks to my Dad's dedication to Chinese painting and art, I had my implicit training early in life and became a visual person yet unafraid to look deep into the subject matters. For years, I bought diaries but none of them satisfied my visual and creative needs.
(www.flickr.com/photos/moleskineart/6335595394/in/photostream)
Since the beginning of the diary making business, every single diary is made by representing time in fixed grids. To challenge this right representation, after exploring in deep thoughts the essence of my own perfect diary, I present to you my Chronodex idea.
Come to think of it, the paper which makes up a diary originated from trees, when the sheets of paper are bound together in the middle, it is almost like foliages stemming from a tree's trunk. Each page is like a branch, each opened page is a week, each day is like a beautiful flower grew from that page, consist of petals of your day's time slices.
You may argue that this format is still slicing time into blocks and far from the fractal nature, but soon as you start using it, you will find that time is no longer right, instead you will find fluidity through free notations.
The more important time slices can be drawn larger, activities can be dots or pies (petals if you will) depending on duration or importance, space on a page is no longer limited to grids. Basically you can roam freely and be amazed how beautiful your week can be.
What's more is that your mind gradually deviate from the rigid format a typical diary imposes on you, reactivity soon flourishes. Imagine the effect happening in weeks! And I'm not kidding.

Los Muiscas o Los Chibchas
son un pueblo indígena que habitó el altiplano cundiboyacense y el sur del departamento de Santander, en Colombia, desde el siglo VI a. C., y cuyos descendientes directos viven actualmente en localidades del distrito de Bogotá como Suba y Bosa, y en municipios vecinos como Cota, Chía y Sesquilé.
Una parte importante de la población actual de la Cordillera Oriental de Colombia es resultado del mestizaje de los muiscas con otros pueblos, particularmente con los españoles. La lengua original de este pueblo fue el muyskkubun, de la familia lingüística chibcha. Actualmente es una lengua muerta, pues el 16 de abril de 1770, mediante Real Cédula, el Rey Carlos III de España prohibió el uso de lenguas indígenas en sus dominios.
En la época prehispánica, los muiscas cultivaban maíz, papa, quinua y algodón, entre otros productos agrícolas. Eran excelentes orfebres, practicaban el trueque de mantas, sal, cerámicas, coca y esmeraldas con los pueblos vecinos.
El Dorado
era un lugar mítico en la parte central de la Nueva Granada ( hoy Colombia ). El Dorado tiene como origen la Confederación Chibcha y la misma nace de la antigua tradición del zipa de ofrendar dones a la diosa Guatavita en la laguna del mismo nombre. Dicen los relatos que el zipa se cubría completamente de oro. Esa tradición que fue conocida por pueblos circunvecinos a los muiscas, atrajo muy especialmente a los españoles que atravesaron las selvas colombianas y venezolanas en búsqueda de una Ciudad de Oro con tesoros fabulosos. De esta leyenda y su legitimo origen colombiano, viene el nombre de Aeropuerto Internacional El Dorado de Bogotá.
La historia precolombina
de los muiscas es en realidad pobre por la pérdida de mucho material que permita una reconstrucción detallada a causa de las guerras de conquista durante el siglo XVI. Todo lo que sabe de los muiscas precolombinos es gracias a la tradición oral, las crónicas de los conquistadores y a las excavaciones arqueológicas adelantadas especialmente después de la Independencia.
Antecedentes
Las excavaciones realizadas en el área del altiplano cundiboyacense dejan evidencias de una gran actividad humana en ese territorio a partir del periodo arcaico, es decir, hace más de 10.000 años, al inicio del Holoceno. Ello terminó una hipótesis tenida como válida durante el siglo XIX que los muiscas habían sido los primeros habitantes del Altiplano. Colombia cuenta además con uno de los yacimientos arqueológicos más antiguos del continente, El Abra cuya edad es datable incluso hasta de hace 13.000 años. Otros vestigios arqueológicos relacionados con El Abra determinan una cultura agrícola denominada abriense. Por ejemplo en Tibitó se encontraron artefactos abrienses datados a partir del 9.740 a. C. y en la Sabana de Bogotá, en el abrigo de Tequendama otras herramientas líticas que datan de un milenio más tarde elaboradas por cazadores especializados. Entre los hallazgos más apreciados se encuentran esqueletos humanos completos del 5.000 a. C. Los análisis han demostrado que los abrienses eran otra etnia diferente a los muiscas con lo que se termina la hipótesis de que estos ocuparon un territorio vacío.
Poblamiento muisca
En la actualidad los estudiosos coinciden en que el grupo humano muisca inmigró hacia el Altiplano Cundiboyacense en una época comprendida entre el 5.500 a. C. y el 1.000 a. C., es decir, durante el periodo preclásico por las numerosas evidencias arqueológicas encontradas en sitios como Aguazuque y Soacha. Como todas las culturas del preclásico, los mismos estaban en una transición entre cazadores y agricultores.
Desde 1.500 a. C. arribaron a la región grupos de agricultores portadores de tradiciones cerámicas incisas provenientes de las tierras bajas que inician la ocupación a través de los valles de vertiente. Estos grupos tienen viviendas permanentes y campamentos estacionales. Entre sus actividades económicas se destaca la explotación de fuentes de aguasal. En el sitio de Zipacón son reconocibles las evidencias de agricultura y alfarería más antiguas de la altiplanicie, y datan del 1.270 a. C.
Entre el 500 a. C. y el año 800 d. C., llegó una nueva oleada de pobladores al altiplano cundiboyacense cuya presencia está indicada por cerámica pintada y por obras de adecuación agrícola y de vivienda. Estos grupos permanecen hasta la época de la conquista española y han dejado abundantes huellas de su ocupación mediante las cuales y con la ayuda de los testimonios escritos del siglo XVI se puede reconstruir en forma detallada su modo de vida y organización sociopolítica. Al parecer los muiscas se integraron a la población que estaba antes que ellos, pero fueron los muiscas los que definieron el perfil cultural y la lengua estrechamente relacionada con la de los pueblos de la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta ( Kogui, Ijka, Wiwa y Kankuamo ) y la vertiente de la Sierra Nevada del Cocuy ( U'wa ).
Historia muisca - Mitología muisca
Hasta 1450, todo lo que se narra antes de esa época, es de carácter mitológico, por cuanto se daba más la influencia de las leyendas de personajes divinos y semidivinos dentro de la cosmogonía muisca. Sin embargo, gracias a la tarea de los cronistas de la época de la conquista y colonia de las Indias ( como el de Lucas Fernández de Piedrahíta ), se ha podido reconstruir los últimos años de existencia histórica de los muiscas.
Las guerras civiles e intertribales
Con la ascensión del zipa Saguamanchica, este se mantuvo en constantes guerras contra diferentes tribus hostiles en sus cercanías como los Sutagaos, Fusagasugaes, a los que sometió capturando y subordinando a su máximo cacique Usatama y sobre todo los panches, lo que sería un serio problema para sus sucesores Nemequene y Tisquesusa en los años venideros. Así mismo tenían que estar pendientes de las oleadas de invasores caribes y de la lucha hegemónica con los Zaques de Hunza por el mando del territorio muisca, principalmente por las minas de sal que eran preciadas para la economía y al tiempo con los caciques rebeldes que se alzaban en su contra.
Se sabe que Saguamachica dominó a los Sutagaos o Fusagasugaes, al cacique Ubaque que incendio el pueblo de Usme, para conquistar el corazón de la hija del zipa, Usminia, pretexto de la guerra entre dos clanes rivales, finalmente conquistó la confederación de Guatavita, pero este cacique tras su derrota se alió con el Zaque de Hunza, Michúa, con quien marchó a la batalla, a pesar de la imprecisión de los registros históricos se cree que ambos ejércitos sumaban unos 30.000 hombres y que el campo de batalla seria cerca de Chocontá, en el transcurso de la batalla tanto el Zipa como el Zaque murieron, dando la retirada de los dos bandos en contienda.
El Zaque fue sucedido por Quemuechantocha y el Zipa por Nemequene. Este último se destacó en los siguientes años como una especie de Carlomagno muisca tanto legislador como conquistador. Rechazaría continuamente las invasiones panches, fortificaría las fronteras, además tipificaría los delitos y dictaría normas estrictas de investigación y juzgamiento. Finalmente se lanzaría a la conquista de las tierras del Zaque, en una batalla similar en Chocontá se enfrentó a Quemuechantocha, pese a que los ejércitos del Zipa inclinaban la balanza, Nuemequene fue herido por una saeta y retirado del campo de batalla murió unos días después, lo que provocó la retirada de sus fuerzas, su general Sagipa cubriría la retirada. Sucedido por su sobrino Tisquesusa se sabe que adelantó una tregua con el Zaque, mientras organizaba sus ejércitos. Pero fue sorprendido por los españoles derrotado y finalmente muerto en Facatativá en 1537.
Quemuechantocha, Tundama, Suamox cayeron con facilidad ante los poderosos ejércitos europeos.
La conquista española del territorio
Mientras los gobernantes muiscas se enfrascaban en guerras civiles,
los conquistadores españoles ya se adelantaban en conquistar el territorio colombiano.
Algunos de ellos Sebastián de Belalcázar ( 1480 - 1551 conquistador espanol ), Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada ( 1509 – 1579 explorador y conquistador español ) y Nicolás de Federmann ( 1505 – 1542 explorador y cronista alemán ), interesados en la búsqueda del tesoro de El Dorado. Avisados de la inminente presencia de los nuevos invasores, los gobernantes muiscas se valieron de ellos para terminar sus conflictos con las tribus hostiles pero una vez terminadas sus diferencias con ellas, los españoles pronto se aprovecharían de la situación para conquistar la confederación y legitimar sus actos ante la Corona española.
Muertos los últimos soberanos muiscas ( Sagipa y Aquiminzaque ), los caciques y el pueblo se alzaron tardíamente contra los nuevos dominadores hasta 1542 cuando el conquistador Gonzalo Suárez Rendón finalmente sofocó los últimos movimientos de resistencia. Inicialmente la confederación fue repartida por Sebastián de Belalcázar, Nicolás de Federmann y Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada hasta que la corona designó a éste último como adelantado de los Cabildos de Santa Fe (sic) y Tunja.
