Résumé (en anglais)

The "Spirit of Place" in Mesoamerica seems to have been generated by a strong inter-connection between landscape, the built environment, pilgrimage, and rituals performed on key dates of a religious cycle. Even though this complex was transposed to Christianity; today, there is a new sociocultural phenomenon generating a different "Spirit of Place." Understanding this evolution through interpretation will enable its dissemination as a preservation enhancing the protection of cultural landscapes and built environments, as well as, maintaining its intangible nature and potentiality for change.
