Resumen
MEDINA MIRANDA, Héctor M.. Hydric Resources and Wixarika Cosmography. Relac. Estud. hist. soc. [online]. 2018, vol.39, n.156, pp.195-223. ISSN 2448-7554. https://doi.org/10.24901/rehs.v39i156.319.
This article describes and analyzes Wixarika mythology related to rivers, oceans and rain, especially in light of the concerns for their mythology raised by the construction of two hydroelectric dams: one already constructed at Aguamilpa on the Grande de Santiago River, and another soon to be built on the San Pedro River. The objective of the essay is to underscore some principles for understanding the internal logic of Wixarika rhetoric in terms of otherness and the transformation of tradition.
