【 摘 要 】

This study, part of a broader research on Ecuadorian historiography, details the role of the state institution in Ecuador as a guide for the tasks contributing to shape the guidelines of a national identity on the grounds of a historical view. Designing imaginaries useful to explain the national character (idiosyncrasies) is crucial to achieve it. Among the outstanding imaginaries are “what is Spanish” and “what is Aboriginal”. Educational institutions, text books and museums become of great importance as a means to spread a ‘national’ History that must have an effect in the multicultural conformation of Ecuador, getting to the concretion of those wishes.
