Abstract

The understanding and acknowledgement of Colombia’s industrial legacy has been dominated by traditional perspectivesthat when drawing up inventories, enhance the individual object and rule out the dynamics of productionthat were developed and consolidated. As an alternative, this paper proposes an approach that combines the ideasabout industrial heritage and cultural landscapes as a starting point to identify, value and bring together the tangibleand intangible heritage of Bogota’s High Plain productive history which gives its industrial cultural identity. Asa methodology, three productive processes of which documentation from the pre-Columbian era was available arestudied and related mutually in three different periods, as part of a production process or as a result of exchangebetween different regions. The presence of water as a resource for production and distribution is included as a factorin the reconstruction of these landscapes. Classifying these traces, three production landscapes were reconstructed,and methodologies are proposed for identifying and valuing the remains of production that could be part of theindustrial heritage of Colombia.
