: One of the authors (GGJ) made three fieldtrips to the Sombrero Negro community, in April and October 2018, and in July 2019. After explaining the purpose of the research and the methodologies to be employed to chiefs/leaders of the villages in the Sombrero Negro community, information sheets about the research were delivered that clearly explained the goals, methods, participation, confidentiality, duration, benefits, and contact with the researchers. Then, informed consent of each informant was obtained orally with a witness present, given that for current and historical socio-cultural and political reasons of these populations, the signing of documents has a negative connotation, while the word has more value (Braunstein CitationRef removed).
