Summary
The article analyzes the slave origin of the Indian fortune that the Biscayan Juan José Amunátegui managed to amass in Cuba during the middle decades of the 19th century. Part of this capital was invested in the construction of different buildings, such as the Busturia Clock Tower, through which he showed his countrymen his success in business, but without reference to its links with slavery.
