The colony Resistencia began being a settlement that they called reduction of the original town abipones of San Fernando of the Black River, as it was traced the history was changing of name, until arriving to be the City of Resistance of the Chaco Province or National Capital Of the sculptures, for its 600 architectural works of the city.
This is a legend of Toba origin, long ago in the city of sculptures, a community of indigenous Tobas settled, at that time the climate was not as we know it, there was only one season of the year, a unique climate without variation.
The Tobas were very accustomed to the climate, the climate that prevailed would be what we know as spring, pleasant stable to live, Vivian very happy, they had no weather problems as in our times.
The tobas very kind and grateful beings, their crops were blessed by the beautiful climate, every seed they planted had successful results, very grateful offered offerings to the God of good Naktanon.
As in any community there is good and evil, in Toba people was no exception, evil was always expectant, annoyed with the Toba community for their worship of Naktanon, decided to teach the Indians a lesson.
The evil Nahuet Cagüen was very angry, living in the shadows gave life to Nomaga better known as the god of winter.
Nomaga was going to take the natives by surprise, the god of evil observed his creation with great satisfaction, knowing the power that I give to the winter, Nahuet Cagüen already enjoyed happiness for the great destruction that was about to begin.
The Indians lived their happy days, not knowing what the evil destiny had prepared for them, the first plants were bearing fruit, began a year of harvest with many expectations, the Tobas made a celebration to give thanks to the god of good for the Good result of the first harvests, to continue like this would be another great year for the natives.
This last celebration completed the patience of Nahuet Cagüen, commanded Nomaga winter god to comply with submission.
Nomaga at night while everyone slept in the shadows to visit the great chaco, the land of the Tobas, the tombs unprepared and ruined the whole plantation of the Indians, before dawn the Indians were suffering an evil never seen, the fury of Climate, winter.
Cold dead, devoid of warm clothing, they saw with their eyes as the effort of their labor was annihilated by the low temperatures, the waters froze, the plantations burned by winter, the animals suffered.
The Toba titiritavam of cold, Nomaga god of the winter took them by surprise, they implored to the God Naktánoón that they heat them. Please help us! Were the supplications of the natives.
The god of evil was pleased to see his work, under the land of the great Chaco to mock the Tobas, where his god is now said mockingly, throw a party to send heat, and was laughing and diabolical.
The Tobas were very respectful of nature only hunted to eat, were unable to kill an animal for their skin, the Indians to see how they suffered the animals removed their piles and made clothes to shelter, the wise nature helped to subsist the indigenous .
The hides of the animals helped to cope with the low temperatures, the evil god Nahuet Cagüen, more furious than before he tried to intimidate the poor Indians even more.
My envoy Nomaga, the winter god, will make them suffer until their own death, freeze their organs, die and suffer worse than animals, I will disappear the sun, darkness and winter reign in the village of the Chaco, said the god of the furious evil.
In the face of the great threat of Nahuet Cagüen, four angels descended to the land of the great Chaco, Palo Borracho, the patio plant, the hummingbird, the viudita, these squires of the good came down to report the situation of the Chaco land.
Seeing with their own eyes the work of the evil evil raised a report of the damages requesting Naktánoón his divine interception.
The god of good did not wait, thawed the waters, sent new wild lives to earth, turned cotton flakes to Nevis flakes.

The anansans say that cotton is a masterpiece, they say that the god of good Naktanon in creating cotton was inspired by his four angels sent to the chaco, I take the best attributes of each of them, the heat of the patio plant, The cocoon like the drunken club, the flock of the hummingbird and the whiteness of the widow.
This situation inspires the god of good and I create the other two seasons of the year, established the months that correspond to each season, I order as we know them today, summer, autumn, winter and spring.
To the flower of the cotton provided it with seeds, so that the chaco winds distribute them throughout the territory, is the explanation of why there is not a single corner of the great Chaco that does not have a cotton plant.

This is another legend of the anxious sages where they show that good always defeats evil, as for the evil god Nahuet Cagüen does not feel defeated, continues in the land that belonged to the Tobas, to go unnoticed became the "Caterpillar Pink "pest of cotton, wreaking havoc if the crop is not taken care of.
