		Da quel momento si susseguirono decenni di razzie ai danni dei Tairona, colpevoli solo di essere i depositari di una cultura avanzata e, soprattutto, di essere dei provetti orafi, capaci di realizzare monili d'oro, strumenti, collane di grande qualità artistica.
		Nelle tombe dei Tairona, nascoste spesso nei pavimenti delle capanne o davanti all'entrata, sono stati ritrovati magnifici gioielli d'oro tra i più splendidi della civiltà precolombiana: rane d'oro, uccelli, serpenti, divinità, orecchini ornamentali, pettorali…spesso in oro puro, molte volte in lega con il rame; fu proprio questa abbondanza di oro a condannare i Tairona.
