However, such interpretation does not allow the articulation of the preserved area with the supporting landscape, neither to the historic urban dynamics that created the downtown under protection. Because of this, it is proposed in this text to review the role of early neighborhoods (in central and southern Mexico usually inhabited by local indigenous people) next to the original viceregal grid, as mean of consolidation and expansion of the protected heritage.

Also, must be taken into account the role assigned to Southern Mexico, after the late 19th century, within international and national markets; since then, the accomplished territorial structure has been mostly modeled by economical and political individuals, acting in different scales and defining the way communications and transports were introduced in the state.

En castellano, el concepto se formo en ese mismo siglo pero el termino para designarlo entonces era otro: el de “pintura”. Mas tarde, el castellano tambien adopto la palabra “paisaje” como en el resto de las lenguas modernas para denotar esa realidad territorial. Era entonces un concepto de mucha riqueza y claridad que sin embargo las ciencias despojaron de su caracter integral en aras de la especializacion. Asi quedaron separados sus componentes naturales de los culturales. El trabajo aqui planteado consiste en analizar dos pinturas originadas en el transito del siglo XVI al XVII; una realizada en Europa occidental y otra en la Nueva Espana.Este ejercicio pretende reconocer la definicion historica de “paisaje” para enunciar los elementos que se han perdido restandole cierto alcance metodologico al concepto. Asimismo proponemos enriquecer la definicion actual para estudiar casos ...

The fifteenth and sixteenth centuries were the time when the strategic quality of these mountain passes reached its peak, first under the rule of the Matlatzinca federation, and later by the Aztecs and their allies. Historical approaches to the territorial evolution of the upper Lerma basin have focused on the lacustrine area that used to cover Abstract. The environmental characteristics of the upper Lerma river basin and the accessibility to the Balsas midelevation basin from its southern margins facilitated the settlement of different human groups since the early history of Mesoamerica. The mountain passes of Atlatlahuca were one of the most strategic ancient routes that communicated these basins, , since no steep slopes had to be walked to descend or climb up over 700 meters, from the pre-Hispanic village of Atlatlahuca to the valley of Tenancingo. So far, the

This methodological possibility has been hardly practiced in México until the late Twentieth Century, thus, the background in this kind of research was not meant to distinguish the climatic behaviour in a regional scale during large periods of droughts time, in fact, it aimed to relate certain socioeconomic events with climatic anomalies. At the same time, it was a research not based in continuos and homogeneous documentary sources, condition accomplished by the rogation ceremonies records registered in the books of the civil and ecclesiastic files; these archives were carefully inspected since the beginning of their recording until the decade of 1860, when they ended as an ¡nstitutional performance, their duration as part of the public and religious records along two hundred and seventy years (1600-1870) gave the opportunity to knowledge droughts in the basin of México. Of the different climatic phenomena, they were the only ones that had the chance to be reliable acknowledge according to the type of information found in México City, since the fundamental mechanism of data, rogation ceremonies, were constantly recorded only during the drought chapters. The rogation ceremonies were carried out with the expectancy of giving end to an environmental or morbid vicissitude. In México City these ceremonies were dedicated, most of the times, to the Virgin of "Los Remedios".

Tal desdén se refleja en el escaso interés y en el poco prestigio que a la fecha manifiesta la geografía histórica. Una vez conducida esta sucinta revisión se muestran algunos avances y propuestas en el ámbito iberoamericano que han procurado subsanar las limitaciones expuestas.
