Abstract

The current concern on the environment or the natural environment where human beings live is not new in the history of humanity and its impacts on urban contexts. Nevertheless, it is important to note that this interest is a relevant and hopeful indicator for future planning of our cities.

This work aims at clarifying some of these issues particularly in the case of pre-Hispanic South America, where the large number of fragile and interrelated ecosystems that exist in the diverse geography, together with the climatic and geologic instability, caused the men to develop, through a very long period of time, knowledge oriented to find technological means that were necessary to integrate in harmony with nature. Unlike other cultures, these men developed a particular way of seeing and understanding the world as a living organism where men is an interrelated part.
