The Guarani people used to live in the Iberá area before the arrival of the Spaniards. The legend says that the daughter of the chief, Iberá, was in charge of the temple and the sacred snakes that her people worshiped. One day a white man arrives and invades the area and with a cross in his hand, a symbol unknown by the Guaraní people, he begins to evangelize the people.
Only Ibéra and his father continued to cling to the old religion, and anguished, one night lberá decided to leave her people forever. She looked for the sacred snakes and went into the warm waters of the lagoon.
The old inhabitants of the place say that many nights a voice is heard. It is the song of Iberá,
that lives forever in the mysterious lagoon of Corrientes.
