Abstract

In this paper I use the Quechua evangelical interpretation of the ancient time, to show a couple discussion. First, I ask how the evangelicals create and reproduce a speech about the past and it does not conflict with traditional knowledge. On the other hand, I want to present the adaptability to the contemporaneity of the system of indigenous beliefs, that it to say, I would like to analyze the different representations of the past that arise under the cover of constant changes that indigenous communities are subjected.
