La relación de pertenencia y cuidado que mantienen las comunidades aledañas a las localidades paleontológicas con su patrimonio

Abstract

In the diagnoses made by the Project for the conservation of paleonthological heritage of the Coordinación Nacional de Conservación del Patrimonio Cultural (CNCPC) del Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia (INAH), it has been possible to appreciate that the relationship between paleontological heritage and its environment has been fully understood by some of the communities surrounding paleontological localities which maintain a comprehensive and respectful coexistence with the paleontological heritage that belongs to them. It is from this, that various strategies have been implemented in these communities that have allowed them to achieve adequate protection and safeguarding of paleonthological assets. In this article we will talk about two examples of localities in which an enhancement, care and protection has been carried out to work as models to follow to be applied in other places that do not maintain a relationship so successful with their paleontological heritage.
