Sixto Minier (March 28, 1920 – April 29, 2008) was a folklorist in the Dominican Republic. He is recognized for his leadership of the group "Los Congos de Villa Mella," a longstanding spiritual brotherhood or "cofradia" in the Dominican Republic whose practices belong to the complex of Caribbean cultural expressions of the African diaspora.[1] "Los Congos de Villa Mella" were named to the UNESCO list of Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2001.[2] Minier was honored by the city of New York "for his contribution to preserving African heritage in the Dominican Republic" (2001). The Dominican Government recognized him as "living heritage of Dominican folklore."[3]
