Abstract

Culture is a core part of human life, because it is not understood without culture or without the ability to make culture, that is why it is directly related to the human spirit in terms of transcendence. That is why a revision of the term from the anthropological point of view is necessary, in order to go through the different categories of material and intangible cultural heritage, where not only dances, music and buildings are included, but also the ancestral
knowledge that due to its goodness have persisted over time. Also, thanks to the recognition of people and institutions about this heritage and its importance in the identity of different societies, the various world conventions and national laws begin to emerge that highlight the
intrinsic value of these cultural manifestations, which allows draw attention to its conservation. For these reasons, culture is a fundamental part of education and vice versa, since in this symbiotic relationship the transmission of fundamental values ??for the integral formation of the
person is ensured.
