Abstract

In this chapter the testimonies of the inhabitants of the municipalities of Viesca and San Pedro are presented and analyzed. They witnessed the existence of the springs in Viesca and the lagoon in Mayran, which today remain only as images in their memory. These testimonies make reference to the environment where they lived; their autobiographic experience and their emotional reactions; their migratory movements; how they perceived their life before and after the water’s disappearance; the explanations they formulated to explain the absence of the springs and lagoons and give sense to their living.
