The Quimbaya were federated nations which lived in the center of the
nation, among the softly rolling hills between the Cauca and Magdalena
Rivers, in the midst of tropical heat and fog. They used the cotton-wool
tree profusely. They were miner, great weavers and fine potters who
expressed their magic plastically; as prodigious goldsmiths, they
produced the most humanistic, refined and elegant goldwork of
pre-Hispanic America.
They were deeply involved in the rites of
enlightenment, a high religious principle, whose symbol is the spiral.
They created men such as the Corinto, with phallic connotations and
other works such as plaques with a theatrical air.

The nation developed around the Calima River, which
flows in to the Pacific Ocean at the southwest part of the country, in
the midst of a luxurious tropical environment. The Calima were
merchants, potters whose products seemed almost magical as well as
refined goldsmiths who produced sumptuous works.
They used gold profusely, even converting it into a
ceremonial warrior's disguise. They gave the mask its highest degree of
expression, showing through it their complex cosmogony; they created
sophisticated magic rites which they expressed in their art. They
favored the line, the arabesque and gold sheet for their artistic
expression and plastic magic.
