Biography

Antonio Ruiz (died 6 February 1824) was an Argentine soldier and national hero of Argentina. Ruiz, nicknamed Falucho, was an Afro-Argentine soldier of the war of independence. Ruiz fought in José de San Martín’s army. According to the most common story, Corporal Ruiz, born a slave (perhaps in Africa), served in the Regiment of the River Plate and died while defending the colors (white and light blue) of the revolutionary flag (later the Argentine flag) against traitors during a revolt at the fort of El Callao, Peru) on February 6, 1824. Rather than hoist the Spanish flag, Falucho chose to be shot by the traitors, crying out with his last breath "¡Viva Buenos Aires!" (Long live Buenos Aires!).
