Interpreting the cosmovision as an articulated set of ideological systems for the knowledge and understanding of traditional care, under the historical method and hermeneutical methodology, interpretative paradigm based on the collection of historical, philological, philosophical, ethnographic data, among others, ratifies the interpretation And understanding of the underlying knowledge of the cosmovision of traditional practices such as health care and disease in pre-Hispanic and present indigenous societies. The concept posed by Wilhelm Dhilthey and contextualized for Mesoamerican studies by Johanna Broda and López Austin, is thought to be important for identifying, knowing and understanding traditional practices. The concept of cosmovision for the nursing discipline is useful if it is studied as a core of products that identify an articulated set of ideological systems such as traditional practices, their ideological field, origin, characteristics, social dynamics, conception of man, Disease and of course, its care in its humanist dimension.
