Societies, and the human beings that configure them, create and use actions of multiple nature to maintain and strengthen relationships. Throughout the histories of people and societies, we are able to acknowledge the creation and use of languages, images, artifacts and symbols, among others, in order to coexist, create and leave memories, develop tools, and to feed, grow and develop, as well as to dispute, make war and agree to peace. Behind these actions, we can find the ideas, convictions, beliefs, knowledge, practices, customs and products that make people’s life possible. We have called this set “culture”, as a way to create a meaning of something that is cultivated by human beings and distinguish it from what nature provides, as we say, in a "natural" way.
