According to <strong>history<\/strong>, this humble girl was in love with <strong>Quintral<\/strong>, descendant of the chief of his tribe.  Due to social differences, the link between the two was impossible.<\/p>\n<p>When a <strong>epidemic<\/strong> began to decimate the population, <strong>Quintral<\/strong> he also got sick.  Desperate <strong>Amancay<\/strong> resorted to a <strong>machi<\/strong> (that is, to a shaman) and she instructed him to look for a <strong>yellow flower<\/strong> on the top of a mountain to achieve the salvation of <strong>Quintral<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Amancay<\/strong>In this way, he climbed until he reached the flower, which he pulled out.  Faced with this situation, a divinity who guarded the mountain appeared and demanded that he return it. <strong>Amancay<\/strong> He proposed a deal: she would give him his <strong>heart<\/strong> if the gods saved <strong>Quintral<\/strong>.  With the accepted pact, the guardian of the mountain took the heart of the young woman;  of each drop that fell from it, indicates the <strong>legend<\/strong>, a new yellow flower sprouted.<\/p>\n<p>For this reason, at present, the amancay flower symbolizes the <strong>love<\/strong>.  It is said that whoever gives an amancay, gives his heart with it.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"un-nombre-de-mujer\">A woman's name<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Amancay<\/strong> is a name that, beyond the Patagonian legend, carry many <strong>women<\/strong> South American.  We can refer, in this framework, to the Argentine soccer player <strong>Amancay Urbani<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>This Santa Fe forward contested the <strong>2019 World Cup<\/strong> and has played for <strong>equipment<\/strong> Europeans like him <strong>Deportivo Alav\u00e9s<\/strong> and the <strong>Osasuna Female<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>We also find the term <strong>Amancay<\/strong> in multiple stores, clubs and venues.
