  • During the 18th and 19th centuries, in the cattle raising region of Southern Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina, a way of life was enforced, which became known as the "gaucho" culture. After the independences, the local elites, while adopting European behavior and cultural standards, began to fight the "gaucho" culture as rough. In the Brazilian State of Paraná, the local elite managed to get rid of them. Notwithstanding, towards the end of the 19th century, what was considered uncivilized, began to be regarded as lost traditions deserving to be recovered by folklorists.
