Etymology

The name Chipaque is derived from the word Chipapabacue, Muysccubun for "Forest of our ancestors".[1]

Symbols

Flag

The flag consists of two bands of the same size. One of them yellow and the other green. Yellow symbolizes wealth. Green symbolizes hope and also represents its rustic and fertile topography. A white triangle emerges from the side of the pole and its vertices converge at the center where the two bands meet.[2]

Seal

Emblem framed by the sides with the flags of Colombia and Cundinamarca. Its crossed flagpoles wear a yellow ribbon with the name of the municipality "Chipaque" written on it. In the lower part there is a typical landscape of the region and the sun.[2]

Geology

The Chipaque Formation, consisting of organic shales and sandstone beds, is named after Chipaque. The Páramo de Cruz Verde is located in the northern part of the municipality.

History

Before the Spanish conquest of the Muisca, Chipaque was inhabited by the indigenous Muisca, organised in their loose Muisca Confederation. Chipaque was part of the cacicazgo of Ubaque. During the conquest, main conquistador Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada sent Juan Tafur eastward. In 1538, he established the first church in Chipaque.[1]

Modern Chipaque was founded on October 2, 1600, by Luis Enríquez.[1]

Economy

Main activities of Chipaque are livestock farming and agriculture, with potatoes (45%) and onions (25%) as most important products.[1]
