Descripción
Sumario:The present work is a fragment of the investigation of the constructive techniques in the aqueduct factory of European influence, refers to how they were conceived by the mix between indigenous culture and European culture, with contributions of each culture in the hydraulic systems built in the century XVI during the viceroyalty, in the current state of Hidalgo, this resulted in part of the local evangelization, regional urban development, economic development and agricultural production in the haciendas. The current fragment is focused on the risks detected in the sites where the aqueducts are located, highlights the phenomenon of progressive destruction by the surrounding population, abandonment of the authorities, ignorance about a correct action on the monument, worsened by the weathering of elements exposed by its location, as well as some natural phenomena that put at risk the integrity of the aqueducts. In conclusion, the best form of conservation is empathy with the monuments, the understanding of its importance on the part of the inhabitants and a periodic record of its physical state
