This article is result of studies on education and pedagogy in Colombia. However, our history is more of a transmission of Western culture which could only be transmitted by means of learning and transformed in the same way by influences that existed in the American territories. Transforming, mutating and disappearing many of their traditions, what makes us think that a society cannot survive without some roots or as we mentioned previously must mutate so that its members do not disperse nor forget, thus transmitting to young generations the wealth enshrined in culture and so perpetuating the skills that permits collective life to thrive.
