Osvaldo Gomez, was a famous Chilean singer, better known by his artistic name; the Indio Araucano.  Osvaldo was born on March 13, 1924 in a place called Quintra Malal, near the city of Angol in the region of La Araucania, the Mapuche nation’s ancestral territory.  Angol is about 575 kilometers south of Santiago, the capital of Chile.
