It presents a tentative body of ideas that tries to give account of the sociohistorical and cultural plots associated to the rock art of the geohistoric region of the Lake of Valencia during the Venezuelan Precolonial period. Using mainly theoretical foundations and data emanating from the archaeological discipline, some methodological proposals are presented for the study of these materials, as well as approximations about their interpretation, production and use. With this, it is intended to pave the way for future research experiences, which allow with greater evidence the understanding of this expression of aboriginal creative art.

Statistically significant differences were observed in the conformation of the second lower premolars between the populations. In relation to the first lower points, the statistically significant differences are not observed in the isometric size or in the conformation or silhouette. Statistically significant differences were observed in both the conformation and the isometric size.

The present work addresses the problematic of the identity construction of musical groups composed of indigenous youth who are revitalizing their culture, and therefore their language, through music from the moment of preserving and merging the elements of culture with modernity. The work of revitalization manifests the concern of the agents who, with their music proposals such as rock, ska, punk metal, among others, allow glimpsing the social reality in which the original peoples are submerged.
