\"\"Guantanamo.- A team of specialists from the San Antonio del Sur Municipal University Center, led by PhD. Evangelio Galano Rodr\u00edguez, has developed a proposal for conserving El Abra de Mariana, a unique gorge regarded as one of the most distinctive and significant landscapes in Guant\u00e1namo Province.<\/p>\n

The research project classifies the mountain pass as an \u201cOutstanding Natural Feature\u201d within the province\u2019s Protected Areas system. Its proposed conservation initiatives include community workshops to encourage local participation, educational sessions highlighting the site\u2019s natural, cultural, and historical values, and the preparation of informational brochures.<\/p>\n

The specialists also recommend establishing partnerships with social organizations and educational institutions in nearby communities to support the protection of El Abra de Mariana. The site was the scene of combat between troops of the Frank Pa\u00eds Second Eastern Front, led by Commander F\u00e9lix Pe\u00f1a, and the \u201ccasquitos,\u201d or helmeted troops, of dictator Fulgencio Batista\u2019s army.<\/p>\n

The study\u2019s findings were published this year in a quarterly issue of the scientific digital journal Hombre, Ciencia y Tecnolog\u00eda (Man, Science, and Technology), issued by the Knowledge and Technology Management Enterprise (GECYT) in Guant\u00e1namo.<\/p>\n

The picturesque gorge was described by Cuban National Hero Jos\u00e9 Mart\u00ed in his Campaign Diary on April 25, 1895\u2014just 14 days after he arrived at Playitas de Cajobabo to join the \u201cNecessary War.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
