ownership of farmland in a Quechua speaking native community located in an island on Lake Titicaca. Taquile was sold at auction to a Spaniard during the second half of the XVI century and then successively to others at several auctions until the XVIII century, when owners from Puno developed it as their own estate, referring to its inhabitants as settlers. A remarkable agrarian reform began in 1942, when the natives started buying their land and obtaining official title deeds to their property. A passionate study about their struggle to achieve this and the state of affairs in Taquile island during the fifties.
