Sumario:[EN]The aim of this paper is to provide a method for defining Steinberg symbols on a complete algebraic curve over a perfect field k from the commutator of a certain extension of groups. This extension is associated with a group morphism ϕ : k* → G. With this definition the reciprocity law is a consequence of the finiteness of the cohomology groups H^0(C, _C ) and H^1(C, _C ). Using this method, Hilbert's norm residue symbol on an algebraic curve and the symbol (a, b)_v for the field ℚ_p (n = 2) can be defined.
