Abstract

This presentation will show how food, music, and language help to create a cultural matrix that is reflected in the tourism industry. I will show how these elements of culture from the perspective of folklore help to establish a sense of national identity as well as individual community pride. My area of focus will be the four regions of Ecuador: the coast, the highlands, the heartland, and the archipelago.
