In this way, it defines the cultural heritage as expressions and oral traditions, gastronomy, performing arts, rituals, social uses, festive celebrations, knowledge and practices related to nature, the universe, knowledge and techniques related to craftsmanship. The historical, cultural and intangible heritage represents the reference of the identity of a population, defines it, characterizes its idiosyncrasy and its cosmovision.
