Résumé en anglais

Cultural values are to be preserved, for life to have a human meaning. Becoming, over many centuries and places, has established the founding roots of bio-ecodiversity for human cultures as well, which are the most genuine embodiment of immaterial values. The impact of ethic groups, beliefs and imported lifestyles and cultures has developed into colonial, utilitarian geopolitical set-ups, destructive for preminent congenital values (African and South-American countries). The recent history of the European civilization has developed at varying rates, since the transfer of immaterial values has been distorted by all-invading rationalism and insensitive technology. The human time of “knowing how to be” has been ostracized by that of having plenty of more and more alternative things. Now, the past must be read in the continuity of the present, even if, for the advancement of science, this is infused with the future. Humanity is waiting for new cultural developments, running towards the sources of life through the perception of the sense (expressions) the memory of the immaterial (values), the images of places (signs). To preserve this understanding, experiences and conditions drawn from innate immaterial values are presented – with the Nature of the sites and the shapes of the monuments in Guatemala, Japan, Malaysia and Africa.
