One of the most remarkable recent developments  in Colombian twentieth century history is the success of the indigenous political movement. This  article argues that this success was due in part to  the nation state’s willingness to support an ethnically based political movement. The article explores the gradual development of a discourse and  political space that favoured the indigenous communities’ demand for land and cultural rights by  focusing on one of the main architects of this discourse and political space: Gregorio Hernandez de  Alba, an ethnologist who became the director of the Division of Indigenous Affairs in the 1960s.  Through the study of his life, this article delves  into the different stages of the relationship between  the Colombian state and the indigenous movement  as well as mapping out the interaction between  anthropologists and indigenous communities in southwestern Colombia. Through Hernandez, the  Colombian state legitimized the most important  demands of the present day indigenous movement. Resumen: Gregorio Hernandez de Alba (1904-1973): La legitimacion de las politicas indigenas etnicas en Colombia Uno de los desarrollos recientes mas notables en  la historia colombiana del siglo veinte, es el  exito del movimiento politico indigena. En este  articulo se sostiene que este exito se debio en  parte a la voluntad del estado-nacion para apoyar  un movimiento politico de bases etnicas. El  articulo explora el desarrollo gradual de un discurso y de un espacio politicos que favorecia la  demanda de tierra y de derechos culturales de las  comunidades indigenas, concentrandose en uno  de los principales arquitectos de este espacio y  discurso politico: Gregorio Hernandez de Alba,  un etnologo que llego a ser director de la Division de Asuntos Indigenas en los anos sesenta.  Mediante un estudio de su vida, este articulo profundiza en las diferentes fases de la relacion  entre el estado colombiano y el movimiento  indigena, y traza la interaccion entre el antropo- logo y las comunidades indigenas en el sudoeste  de Colombia. A traves de Hernandez, el estado  colombiano otorgo legitimidad a las demandas  mas importantes del movimiento indigena de  hoy.
