Resumen / Abstract.

The tropical Andes of South America holds a huge number of untold stories about their societies and about the in- teractions between the locals and their natural beauties. The amazing dynamics of its natural system, including massive and some times shaking mountains, interacting with receding glaciers, unstable proglacial lakes and storming rivers, have had consequences for the population, infrastructure and even for the political system of these Andean societies.
