10512513791SAN JUAN - as "a great act of historical justice" described the rector of the Center for Advanced Studies of Puerto Rico and the Caribbean (CEAPRC) archaeologist Miguel Rodríguez López, transfer of remains of Ramon Power y Giralt on Monday to Cathedral of San Juan.
"A very important day because exactly 200 years ago, Power died of yellow fever in the city of Cadiz away from their homeland and their loved ones and in a distressing situation of helplessness and great need. Never in his deathbed Power have imagined that one day another generation Puerto Ricans would do everything he could to his remains rest on peace in his beloved city walled, covered by national flag monoestrellada he never knew. Much less thought it was going to be buried with his faithful friend and compatriot the brave Bishop Juan Alejo de Arizmendi, in the same room where he had received the ring as a sign of commitment and loyalty in the defense of Puerto Rico before the Spanish courts ", Lopez Rodriguez said in a press release.
Rodriguez said "the transfer of the remains of Bishop Arizmendi Power and the chapel which houses the Altar of the Fatherland is a moment of great significance for the country. So we should celebrate with pride and satisfaction of accomplishment. "
About the steps taken in the past around the remains of Power, Rodriguez said that "there are many people and institutions from the 1960s dreamed of identifying the remains of Power and move from Spain to the island. But these efforts can embody the figure of the Archbishop of San Juan, Archbishop Roberto Gonzalez Nieves, who at the end of the long road had the courage to face all kinds of obstacles to goal. The country has a historic debt with Don Ramón Power, with Bishop Arizmendi and with Roberto González Nieves, Archbishop of San Juan. "
The Center was founded 36 years ago by Dr. Ricardo E. Joy, and since 2004 is headed by archaeologist Miguel Rodríguez López. It is an institution offering masters and doctoral programs in History, Archaeology and Literature.

President Nicolas Maduro, 4 June 13President Maduro won the 14 April vote against opposition leader Henrique Capriles by a narrow margin
The Venezuelan government says it has arrested nine Colombian right-wing paramilitaries who were plotting to assassinate President Nicolas Maduro.
Interior Minister Miguel Rodriguez said the nine had been instructed to go to the Venezuelan capital, Caracas, and carry out the plot.
More arrests are expected, he added.
President Maduro was elected in April to succeed late president Hugo Chavez, who died of cancer after 14 years in office.
In May, Mr Maduro accused Colombian politicians, led by former President Alvaro Uribe, of plotting to kill him.
"Uribe is a killer," he said at the time, adding that the "Venezuelan right" was also involved.
Mr Uribe, a critic of Hugo Chavez, dismissed the accusations and said he would take President Maduro to the Inter-American Commission for Human Rights over the statement.

In his latest accusations, the Venezuelan president did not mention Mr Uribe.
Mr Maduro on Sunday posted a message on Twitter saying his government faced "a plot the fascist right supported by violent groups in Colombia".
On Monday the Venezuelan interior minister announced the arrests of two groups of Colombians took place at the weekend.
The first group, with alleged links to the Rastrojos paramilitary organisation, was arrested in western Tachira state, Mr Rodriguez said.
The six people arrested were named as Elisa Cruz, Pedro Araujo, Arlington Miranda, Jose Israel Echavez, Javier Rodriguez and Giovani Sala.
Another three men - Luis Enrique Gomes Lopez, Jose Guerrero Angulo and Manuel Guillermo Munoz Espino - were arrested in Portuguesa state, also in western Venezuela.
Mr Rodriguez said they were under the command of Colombian paramilitary leader Jose Maria Barrera, better known as Chepe Barrera.
"There are links between the first and the second group, as both had been told to travel to Caracas to accomplish their mission," said Mr Rodriguez.
Weapons, ammunition and fake uniforms of the Venezuelan army were seized from the alleged plotters, he told journalists.
The Venezuelan government says a third group of Colombians, which is also part of the plot, has probably managed to get to Caracas.
"They are being tracked down by our intelligence services," said Mr Rodriguez.
