Juan Camilo Niño Vargas is a Colombian anthropologist and ethnologist whose research focuses on the indigenous populations of northern Colombia, particularly the Ette people and the broader Chibchan-speaking societies of the Isthmo-Colombian area. He is recognized for documenting endangered indigenous languages, examining socio-cosmologies, and contributing to comparative studies of Amerindian peoples.
Early life and education
Vargas completed his undergraduate and master's degrees in Anthropology at the Universidad de los Andes, with additional studies in History, Philosophy, and Geography. He subsequently earned a Ph.D. in Social Anthropology and Ethnology from the School for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences in Paris under the supervision of Philippe Descola. His doctoral dissertation, Cosmos Ette: Ethnographie d'un univers du nord de la Colombie, proposed new frameworks for understanding indigenous cosmologies in northern Colombia.
Academic career
Vargas is an Associate Professor at the Department of Anthropology, University of the Andes where he teaches linguistic anthropology, ethnology, and historical anthropology courses.
He has served on editorial boards for publications addressing Indigenous cultures and languages. He is a member of the Colombian Academy of History, the Society for the Anthropology of Lowland South America, and the Center for Anthropological and Cultural Historical Research AIP - Panamá (CIHAC).
Research focus and contributions
Vargas's research explores the distinctions between Amazonian animism, Mesoamerican-Andean analogism, and Chibchan socio-cosmologies. By analyzing myths, agricultural practices, and dream interpretations, he has shown that Chibchan-speaking groups, such as the Ette, maintain unique ontological visions in which deities, humans, and animals occupy intersecting but hierarchically arranged realms. His work on Ette cosmology has drawn attention to how indigenous peoples articulate decay, transformation, and regeneration concepts in ecological and spiritual contexts.
A substantial portion of his ethnographic fieldwork concerns traditional agriculture. He has argued that these practices reveal complex interactions between humans and non-human entities, contributing to broader debates on Amerindian conceptions of nature. His publications detail various aspects of Ette life, including language preservation, historical narratives, and ritual practices.
Linguistic documentation
Vargas's most acclaimed contribution to linguistic anthropology is the "Diccionario de la lengua ette," published in 2018. The dictionary compiles thousands of Ette terms, providing detailed phonological analysis and extensive ethnographic background. According to an external review by Daniel E. Kraus Vollert, it represents "the most comprehensive lexicographic research on the Ette language to date". It helps bridge a gap in scholarly knowledge by linking linguistic documentation to a broader cultural revitalization effort. The Colombian Ministry of Culture acknowledged Vargas in 2015 for his work on endangered Amerindian languages, highlighting the dictionary's academic and practical value in revitalizing the Ette language.
