Sumario:This article, by way of ethnography, approaches the inhabitants of the Sierra de Ancasti, province of Catamarca, and tries to highlight how some traditional and ancestral customs are kept alive, and intertwined in day-to-day life. The coyoyo or wild silk weavers keep alive a practice that, as part of a family task, requires a coordination of efforts, as well as the raising of animals. Both tasks show the strong relationship of affectivity and linkage in which humans, animals and the forest are involved. Local knowledge, learning, experiences, stories and past times that are also present appear, interwoven like silk.
