El nombre "Urutau" según Montoya significa "ave nocturna" y también "gavilocho ave de rapiña".

📜 CfP: Minimal Computing and the Middle Ages, IMC2026, Leeds (UK) The session will explore the intersection of #minimalcomputing and #medieval studies for sustainable, accessible, and ethical approaches to #digital scholarship in a time of limited resources. 📅Deadline: 23:59 BST, 10/09/25

According to Montoya, the name ‘Urutau’ means ‘night bird’ and also ‘hawk bird of prey.’ Cadogan records that the Urutau (Nyctibius griseus cornutus) is, in the mythical texts of the Tavyterã and Chiripa, the sister of the Sun and Moon Twins.

Francisco Uruta estaba probablemente en Asunción actuando como yanacona, un indígena trabajador forzado en la casa de su encomendero.

Francisco Uruta was probably in Asunción working as a yanacona, an indigenous servant forced to work in the house of his encomendero.

El padrón de 1685 registra a "Don Francisco Uruta ausente en la ciudad" y "Cristóbal Uruta ausente con su mujer".

The 1685 census records "Don Francisco Uruta absent in the city" and "Cristobal Uruta absent with his wife." Don Francisco had the colonial title "Don" before his baptismal name, revealing that the Spaniards considered him a Guarani leader.

Uruta y Urutau son nombres guaraníes que se encuentran en los documentos coloniales del siglo XVII, particularmente en el registro de la población de San Francisco de Yuty, correspondiente al año 1685.

Uruta and Urutau are Guarani names found in 17th-century colonial documents, particularly in the population register of San Francisco de Yuty for the year 1685.

The name "Aguara", according to Montoya, means "fox," and Cadogan records that the Mbyá associate it with the jaguar, while for the Pai Tavyterã, it represents one of the "terrestrial souls" (angüé) that transmigrates.

El nombre "Aguara" según Montoya significa "zorro", y Cadogán registra que los Mbyá lo asocian con el jaguar, mientras que para los Pai Tavyterã representa una de las "almas telúricas" (angüé) que transmigra.

When the resisters shouted Aguara Guazu's name, this cacique disarmed himself and negotiated with them, convincing them to retreat without eliminating the priest.
