Is Morality Objective?

[pythagorean]

Can we get back to cattle rustling ?

Speak of the devil!

The most well known band of cattle rustlers was led by Juan Tumba. (My bold.)

We could balance out all this discussion of slavery with some discussion of freedom, just to give an alternative point of view.

Also in the 18(th)century, it appears that in the upper Patía Valley a sort of Maroon aid society developed, capable of protecting and absorbing slaves escaping both highland haciendas and lowland mines. Although no palenque as such was constructed, a variety of pueblos de libres served the same purpose. The best known example, recorded in 1749, is that of a group of free persons led by a certain Juan Tumba. Similar refuges appear to have been scattered throughout the huge and thinly populated Patía Basin. Such communities, the remnants of which still survive today, lived primarily by ranching and small-scale agriculture.

The book by Zuluaga in the references has a lot of information about Juan Tumba's band, including his rap sheet, that Zuluaga managed to compile from colonial records.
