This article presents the exercise of following the katoü or Wayuu bag, critically observing the Colombian-Arijuna (non-Wayuu) society by exploring the representations of the Wayuu territory (as another territory) constructed from positions of power as a hegemonic society, in different strategies of economic intervention in which the katoü becomes a central element. The Wayuu bag turns into an ethnographic magnifying glass for investigating the relationship between Wayuu and Arijuna in a disputed territory in Colombia.El artículo presenta un ejercicio de seguimiento de la bolsa katoü o wayuu, observando críticamente la sociedad colombiana-arijuna (no wayuu) a través de una exploración de las representaciones del territorio wayuu (como cualquier otro territorio) construidas desde posiciones de poder como sociedad hegemónica, en diferentes estrategias de intervención económica en las que el katoü se convierte en pieza central. La bolsa wayuu se torna en lupa etnográfica para investigar la relación entre los wayuu y los arijuna en un territorio de Colombia en disputa.
