This paper studies territory, memory and the community, based on the land claims in El Rosal, Cauca, Colombia. The said vinculation has been seen through lawsuits, disputes over the construction of buildings on land where construction is prohibited, the misappropriation of land, and the subsequent territorial reorganization (which are evidenced in the regional historic archives). It has also been witnessed through the annual Festival of the Virgen del Rosario, a complex ritual that is conceived as territorial updating through the yearly commemoration of the Virgin, and which renews the presence of the villagers within the territory and their jurisdiction over the territory. Structurally, this study provides strength to the hypothesis on the territory-memory continuum.

Palabras llave : Territorial update; territory-memory continuum; land; feast; resistance.
