Abstract
En el presente artículo, se hace un análisis crítico de lo que se ha publicado sobre el pito atravesao, también conocido como caña de millo, basado en un diagnóstico primordialmente cronológico sobre el estado del arte relativo a este tema. Luego, se analizan y, en lo posible, se aclaran tres complejos temas frecuentemente abordados en los escritos sobre el instrumento: la errónea asociación de la cumbia con el conjunto de gaitas, los posibles antecedentes de la caña de millo y su presencia y vigencia en diferentes regiones de la Costa Atlántica colombiana. Finalmente, se exhorta a la comunidad académica al estudio de este instrumento y su música, de singular importancia en la región caribe del país.This journal is registered under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License.
