description Orality is characterized by its historical, social, and cultural relevance. Despite technological innovations, orality has not been displaced; on the contrary, it has been reinterpreted. The purpose of this article is to present the originality and richness of oral literature in the community of Caripe El Guácharo, Venezuela. It will explain the historical and social context of the eastern “galerón”, the fusion of two cultural traditions, and the impact that Greek mythology has had on the repertoire of its singers. Participative action research and case study were used to obtain the data, which was then analyzed qualitatively. It is concluded that the “décima cantada” has been related to religiosity, to peasant activities, and within one historical alternative of having started as a memorized singing and ended up being an improvised singing.

La oralidad se caracteriza por su relevancia histórica, social y cultural. A pesar de las innovaciones tecnológicas, la oralidad no ha sido desplazada, todo lo contrario, ha sido reinterpretada. El propósito de este artículo es dar a conocer la originalidad y la riqueza que posee la literatura oral en la comunidad de Caripe El Guácharo, Venezuela. Se explicará el contexto histórico y social del galerón oriental, la fusión de dos tradiciones culturales y el impacto que ha tenido la mitología griega en el repertorio de sus cantadores. Para la obtención de los datos se utilizó la investigación-acción-participativa y el estudio de caso como métodos de investigación. Se concluye que la décima cantada ha estado relacionada con la religiosidad, con las faenas campesinas y dentro de un momento histórico determinado porque empezó siendo un canto memorizado y terminó como un canto improvisado. A oralidade caracteriza-se pela sua relevância histórica, social e cultural. Apesar das inovações tecnológicas, a oralidade não tem sido deslocada, pelo contrário, tem sido reinterpretada. O propósito deste artigo é expor a originalidade e a riqueza que possui a literatura oral na comunidade de Caripe El Guácharo, Venezuela. Serão explicados o contexto histórico e social do galerón oriental, a fusão de duas tradições culturais e o impacto que tem tido a mitologia grega no repertório dos seus cantores. Para a obtenção de dados foi utilizada a pesquisa-ação-participação e o estudo de caso como métodos de pesquisa. Conclui-se que a décima cantada tem estado relacionada com a religiosidade, com os trabalhos dos camponeses e com um momento histórico determinado, porque começou sendo um canto aprendido e terminou como um canto improvisado.
