PARRA-ZEBADUA, A. y GENIS-VINYALS, M.. IDENTITY AND ROOTS. A Cataloging Method for the Earthen Architectural Heritage in Santo Domingo Neighborhood in Tuxtla Gutierrez, Chiapas, Mexico. RIIIT. Rev. int. investig. innov. tecnol. [online]. 2018, vol.6, n.32. ISSN 2007-9753.
The current urban image of the historic center of Tuxtla Gutiérrez is the result of the loss and deterioration of its built heritage, a fact that has progressively caused the loss of identity of its inhabitants. This article aims to show the process of developing a cataloging method that allows to value the traditional earthen architectural heritage of one of the oldest neighborhoods and, in turn, the most devastated of the historic center, the Barrio de Santo Domingo. It is hypothesized that the definition of this method will generate a model of protection for this heritage that has as a consequence the progressive recovery of the roots that gave rise to the city. The method must allow, in the first place, to identify and value the building types at the functional level and the construction types linked to the earthen construction and, secondly, to detect a common pattern of injuries in the urban network. This contribution, which belongs to a broader research work, could provide a methodological basis to achieve a comprehensive urban regeneration of the neighborhood. This is due to the fact that the value of the built heritage is linked to the dynamics of uses and therefore to the local culture, which is equivalent to the reinforcement of the identity of its inhabitants and the improvement of their quality of life.
