El distrito más antiguo del PERÚ estaría ubicado en Lima norte: no es SAN MARTIN DE PORRES ni COMAS

Carabayllo, uno de los distritos más populares de Lima Norte, está en vías de ser considerado el más antiguo del Perú. Limita con Santa Rosa, Comas y San Juan de Lurigancho, y alberga a más de 300,000 ciudadanos. Fundado hace 451 años durante la época del Virreinato, su reconocimiento oficial por parte del Estado peruano data del 29 de junio de 1971, según la ordenanza municipal 154-A/MDC, publicada en El Peruano.

Con el fin de ratificar la importancia histórica de Carabayllo, la congresista no agrupada Flor Pablo propuso el proyecto de ley 8650/2023 para que este distrito limeño sea reconocido como “el más antiguo” del país y así se reconozca su valor patrimonial, cultural y su contribución al desarrollo del Perú.

Carabayllo sería el distrito más antiguo del Perú, según proyecto de ley

La iniciativa legislativa plantea que se reconozca a Carabayllo como “el distrito más antiguo del Perú” y a “su valor histórico y por la importancia que tuvo para la consolidación de nuestra República y Nación”. La propuesta también se sustenta que dentro del distrito se “conserva un patrimonio invaluable para nuestra consolidación” como país.

Finalmente, se sugiere que sea declarado “de interés nacional la investigación, registro, restauración, conservación, y en valor de la casa hacienda Santiago de Punchauca y su capilla”.

Carabayllo: historia e importancia

La justificación principal del proyecto de ley se basa en diversos estudios, uno de ellos, a cargo de la investigadora Mould de Pease, quien a lo largo de su vida hizo un profundo trabajo sobre la historia inmediata de Carabayllo.

Según señaló la especialista, en Carabayllo se asentó el señorío Colli hacia el 400 a. C y en la colonia se establecieron los españoles “en torno al templo de San Pedro de Carabayllo, el cual comenzó a construirse en 1571 con el aporte inicial de los curacas Hernando Nacara y Pedro Quispechambr”.

La historiadora María Rostorowski también ha destacado “la forma en cómo estos territorios fueron anexados al imperio incaico a través de las campañas de Inca Tupac Yupanqui, tomando en cuenta la resistencia del Señor Colli”. Además, durante las conquistas de Tupac Yupanqui a la costa central, el Colli Capac se le opuso con sus ejércitos, por lo que resultó vencido y muerto en la guerra, lo que resalta la importancia de esta cultura.

Posteriormente, dentro de la época colonial se constituyó el pueblo de San Pedro de Carabayllo, cuya construcción más antigua era su iglesia que, según la fuente oficial de la Municipalidad de este distrito, fue construida “poco después de la fundación del pueblo, en 1571”.

Finalmente, la propuesta legal detalla que el valor histórico de este distrito y su antigüedad han sido destacados “tanto por historiadores, por prensa internacional, pero también por la normativa distrital de Carabayllo”.

¿Cómo se les dice a los que viven en Carabayllo?

En la actualidad, aquellos que nacieron o viven en el distrito de Carabayllo son identificados como carabayllanos o carabayllanas. Es importante destacar que este distrito del norte de Lima también fue precursor en la fundación de Comas.
