Susacón is a town and municipality in the Colombian Department of Boyacá, part of the subregion of the Northern Boyacá Province. Susacón borders to the north Soatá, in the east Boavita, La Uvita and Jericó, in the south Sativanorte and in the west the Santander municipality of Onzaga.[1]

History

When the Spanish conquistadors led by Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada entered the Altiplano Cundiboyacense, the central highlands of the Colombian Andes, they found there the Muisca Confederation, the former country, home of the Muisca.

Susacón was ruled by a cacique who was loyal to the cacique of Soatá. The cacique of Susacón took part in the bloody Battle of Bonza against the Spanish troops of De Quesada.[1]

Although the Spanish missionaries already arrived in 1556, the village was officially founded on December 18, 1809.[1]

Susacón means in Chibcha: "ally of the cacique Susa".[2]

Economy

Main economical activities of Susacón are agriculture (potatoes, maize, barley, sugar cane, wheat and bananas), livestock farming, fishing and crafts.[1]
