Sin principio ni fin (2016) by Panamanian writer Justo Arroyo narrates the life of Constantino Aguilar, an indigenous man sentenced to death for not fitting into society. Before his death, he is given forty-eight hours to put his earthly and heavenly affairs in order, a command that Constantine does not understand because, for him, there is no division between them. However, during that time, he looked back on his life, which allows the reader to comprehend the reasons for his actions, which are often incomprehensible. This article aims to present the Colonial Matrix of Power, according to Walter Mignolo, to understand the reasons why the protagonist of the novel acts the way he does and how, for the people in power his nature is indomitable
